It seems <code>--date-override</code> doesn't work correctly with <code>fossil new</code>, which is required for importing files from other repositories:

<pre>
$ fossil new test.fsl -A test --date-override "2010-01-01 UTC"
project-id:
server-id:
admin-user: test (initial password is "5a4f69")

$ fossil timeline -R test.fsl
</pre>
→ The timelime shows no entries!

If I create a new repository without date override and then try to override date to a past value, fossil complains about time skew and doesn't accept commit!
