Setting SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH before make latexpdf so pdfTeX produces byte-identical amrex.pdf when the documentation source hasn't changed, avoiding a new ~7 MB blob in git on every deploy. The fixed epoch (441763200 = 1984-01-01 UTC) pins CreationDate, ModDate, and /ID.

Note that in AMReX-Codes.github.io's git repo, there are more than 5000 versions of amrex.pdf, mainly because of the metadata difference. |
