[PATCH] git-send-email: do not pass custom Date: header

From: Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net>
Date: Oct 23, 2006, 07:46 UTC
Message-ID: <11615895973387-git-send-email-normalperson@yhbt.net>

We already generate a Date: header based on when the patch was emailed. git-format-patch includes the Date: header of the patch. Having two Date: headers is just confusing, so we just use the current Date:

Often the mailed patches in a patch series are created over a series of several hours or days, so the Date: header from the original commit is incorrect for email, and often far off enough for spam filters to complain.
