Bug on aur4.archlinux.org (website itself) - repo log tab uses UTC-4

On aur4.archlinux.org, all times appear to be displaying in UTC, which makes sense.

But, in a package's "View Changes" page (the repo log tab), the "Age" column appears to be calculating from UTC-4.

i.e. An updated package immediately shows Age: 4 hours

It works for me. I think the time might be calculated from "git commit", not "git push". Did you wait a few hours before pushing your changes? Can you give an example?

No, I didn't.  But, yes, that's it.  :-)  Probably not needed now, but example at: https://aur4.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git … d-kill-fix

Running arch in a VM, and was having problems with arch remembering through reboots that the hardware clock is in localtime.  I'm in UTC-4, figured it was a coincidence, that the server or maintainer must be too...

Fixed my clock issues, pushed new changes, and it properly shows updated 1 minute ago.

So, my question morphs into whether aur4.archlinux.org should show under "Age" the commit or push time.

Its front page under "Recent Updates" is based on push time, unlike the repo log page.  (My previous pushes, although the repo log page indicated 4 hours old, still showed up in the Recent Updates category.)
