that mtime command '--mtime=2015-10-21 00:00Z' does not work for me.

+ find . -not -iwholename '*.git*' -print0
+ tar --null --no-recursion --create --verbose --owner=root --group=root
--numeric-owner --mode=go=rX,u+rw,a-s --sort=name '--mtime=2015-10-21
00:00Z' --xz
--file=/home/user/whonix_dot/Whonix/packages/corridor_0.11.5.orig.tar.xz
-T -

tar: Option --mtime: Treating date '2015-10-21 00:00Z' as 2015-10-21
02:00:00

tar --version
tar (GNU tar) 1.29

Adding 'export TZ=UTC' beforehand however works for me.

tar: Option --mtime: Treating date '2015-10-21 00:00Z' as 2015-10-21
00:00:00
