+Emil Velikov searched on IRC for hints on how to guarantee unique values during build [to invalidate](https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/mesa-dev/2016-May/118554.html)
+shader caches in Mesa, when also no [VCS information](https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/mesa-dev/2016-June/120709.html) is available.
+A possible solution is a timestamp, which is unique enough for local builds, but can still be reproducible by allowing it to be overwitten with `SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH`.
