Subject: [PATCH v4 6/6] rebase: add --reset-author-date

From: Rohit Ashiwal <[email-masked]>
Date: Sat, 7 Sep 2019 17:20:34 +0530

The previous commit introduced --ignore-date flag to interactive
rebase, but the name is actually very vague in context of rebase -i
since there are two dates we can work with. Add an alias to convey
the precise purpose.
