+
+# For reproducible builds, this code sets the default SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH in each
+# component's build environment. The format is number of seconds since the
+# system epoch.
+#
+# Upstream components (generally) respect this environment variable,
+# using it in place of the "current" date and time.
+# See https://reproducible-builds.org/specs/source-date-epoch/
+#
+# The default value of SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH comes from the function
+# get_source_date_epoch_value which reads from the SDE_FILE, or if the file
+# is not available will use the fallback of SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH_FALLBACK.
+#
+# The SDE_FILE is normally constructed from the function
+# create_source_date_epoch_stamp which is typically added as a postfuncs to
+# the do_unpack task.  If a recipe does NOT have do_unpack, it should be added
+# to a task that runs after the source is available and before the
+# do_deploy_source_date_epoch task is executed.
+#
+# If a recipe wishes to override the default behavior it should set it's own
+# SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH or override the do_deploy_source_date_epoch_stamp task
+# with recipe-specific functionality to write the appropriate
+# SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH into the SDE_FILE.
+#
+# SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is intended to be a reproducible value.  This value should
+# be reproducible for anyone who builds the same revision from the same
+# sources.
+#
+# There are 4 ways the create_source_date_epoch_stamp function determines what
+# becomes SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH:
+#
+# 1. Use the value from __source_date_epoch.txt file if this file exists.
+#    This file was most likely created in the previous build by one of the
+#    following methods 2,3,4.
+#    Alternatively, it can be provided by a recipe via SRC_URI.
+#
+# If the file does not exist:
+#
+# 2. If there is a git checkout, use the last git commit timestamp.
+#    Git does not preserve file timestamps on checkout.
+#
+# 3. Use the mtime of "known" files such as NEWS, CHANGLELOG, ...
+#    This works for well-kept repositories distributed via tarball.
+#
+# 4. Use the modification time of the youngest file in the source tree, if
+#    there is one.
+#    This will be the newest file from the distribution tarball, if any.
+#
+# 5. Fall back to a fixed timestamp (SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH_FALLBACK).
+#
+# Once the value is determined, it is stored in the recipe's SDE_FILE.
