I believed to remember that it involved setting some envvar. (Actually I did check for that in the manpage but did not find anything. But I did not go through the options, because I was so certain it involved a envvar.)

tarsius, I think you're talking about `git filter-branch`, but you don't really need it for a simple task like this.

Well actually it does not work with git from the master branch:git rebase -i --ignore-date a7a86feerror: unknown option `ignore-date'This seams to be a bug however: in the manpage this option actually is listed.

I have tried it before posting.. Except for I haven't done it interactively, maybe that's the trick? Also, have you tried the --committer-date-is-author-date alias? Maybe the --ignore-date was introduced in later version, I have no idea.

Yes, if done non-interactively it works. But then - as always with rebase - the very first commit is not affected.
