t9100: stop depending on commit timestamps
An earlier "fix" to this script gave up updating it not to rely on the current time because we cannot control what timestamp subversion gives its commits. We however could solve the issue in a different way and still use deterministic timestamps on Git commits. One fix would be to sort the list of trees before removing duplicates, but that loses information: - we do care that the fetched history is in the same order - there's a tree which appears twice in the history, and we'd want to make sure that it's there both times So instead, let's de-duplicate using a hash (preserving the order), and drop only lines with identical trees and subjects (preserving the tree which appears twice, since it has different subjects each time).
