+# Sets the default SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH in each component's build environment.

-# After sources are unpacked but before they are patched, we set a reproducible value for SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH.
-# This value should be reproducible for anyone who builds the same revision from the same sources.
+# The default value of SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH comes from the function
+# get_source_date_epoch_value which reads from the SDE_FILE, or if the file
+# is not available (or set to 0) will use the fallback of
+# SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH_FALLBACK.
+#
+# The SDE_FILE is normally constructed from the function
+# create_source_date_epoch_stamp which is typically added as a postfuncs to
+# the do_unpack task. If a recipe does NOT have do_unpack, it should be added
+# to a task that runs after the source is available and before the
+# do_deploy_source_date_epoch task is executed.
+#
+# If a recipe wishes to override the default behavior it should set it's own
+# SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH or override the do_deploy_source_date_epoch_stamp task
+# with recipe-specific functionality to write the appropriate
+# SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH into the SDE_FILE.
