I'm in the process of migrating some private repositories from another host to GitHub. Using a simple bash script and hub I could easily automate converting all the old release texts (which were kept in a single markdown file) to GitHub releases.
However, whenever I use hub release create or create a new release from the website, the date does not correspond to the tag. It uses the current timestamp as release date. How can I edit this date to match the tag?
The releases API seem to show a published_at field, but I can't find any references to editing it. It only appears in the response.
