Subject: [PATCH] Fix section about backdating tags in the git-tag docs
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The tagger is equal to the committer, not the author, so
GIT_COMMITTER_DATE is the right environment variable to use, not
GIT_AUTHOR_DATE.
