Along with SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH SOURCE_DATE_TZ can be used to recreate a build with a specific date timestamp. This allows the verification of source supplied with a pre-compiled binary.
If SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is supplied SOURCE_DATE_TZ can be used to specify what will appear in the output of the version command. If SOURCE_DATE_TZ is not specified UTC will be used. SOURCE_DATE_TZ on it's own will not have an affect.
I advise against merging this patch given Ximin Luo's comments on v1, at least until this has been properly discussed with the reproducible team and a precise meaning for it has been agreed on.
I'm happy to go along with that. 1/2 of this series was the "fix". 2/2 just kind of came up as part of the discussion that followed. Tom, can you handle that or do you want me to send a v4 of the series with just the first patch?
I'll pick up just the first patch for now, shortly.
