Git Hack: Make commit with a past date

Ever wanted to commit something to a git repo with a past date? Here’s how you could do it.

If you are working on a project and missed a commit yesterday or you accomplished the task but GitHub for Windows bailed on you? Well, this little hack can solve your problem.

Pre-Step.
Pull all data from remote to local repository.

For the same, we are using the --amend and --date switches.
The exact command is as follows:

$ git commit --amend --date="YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS"

Simple, isn't it!
