How do I make a Git commit in the past?

How can I create a Git commit for a previous date? Here's the process:

  1. Add your changes:
    git add .

  2. Commit your changes with a specified date:
    git commit --date "10 day ago" -m "Your commit message"
    or
    git commit --date "24-02-2023" -m "Your commit message"

  3. Finally, push your code:
    git push

Thank you, and happy coding!
