I added the "fdpsh" command "iso2date YYYY-MM-DD" or "iso2date
today"
to make this easier.
The "make clog" target takes care of this automatically. I
would
recommend folks using that target whenever possible since it minimizes
hassle. If you edit manually, well, just respect the normal rules for
such things. If you break the revision's @date attribute, the rpmbuild
process will tell you what you did wrong (i.e. %changelog date is not in
proper format).
All dates in the "rpm-info.xml" file should be in the ctime(3)
format, instead of some as ISO and others not. We just don't really
care about the revision date on the doc. Yet.
Since no one will be creating rpm-info.xml files that have any RPM
revisions yet, there shouldn't be any cruft to worry about.
Well, I'm testing the RPM build structure on a second document ;-)
I'm not really sure how this "rpm-info.xml" was produced, though.
As you say, no need to worry. In fact, I only worry about those
things which I control: therefore, I never worry about anything.
