Subject[PATCH] kconfig: do not record timestamp in .config
Date
Hi Michal,

The following patch removes the timestamp in .config file. This is a
prerequiresite for the revised version of the printer merge I sent back
in December[0]. The issue is that heading comment generations will be
merged in a single function, and that would revert the deterministic
change you made in mid-April.

The other options are either to have timestamp always enabled and
disable them selectively, but that might be a pain to implement, or to
have timestamp disable by default and an environment variable, say
KCONFIG_TIMESTAMP, to turn everything on manually.

Regards,
- Arnaud
