Comment (by boklm):
I think there are different solutions:
* we can use the time of the commit from `tor-browser-bundle.git`. The
drawback is that we can't do partial rebuilds anymore, as any commit will
change the timestamp used everywhere
* we can use the time of the last commit on the gitian descriptor file.
However, the descriptor files are not always changed between two releases
* we can use the time of the last commit from one of the remotes specified
in the descriptor (tor-browser.git for the firefox descriptor)
* we can manually set a value for `REFERENCE_DATETIME` in
`gitian/versions` and update it while preparing a new release
