Here is the command that is running inside the makepkg script:
```
curl -s -L -O https://github.com/AppImage/AppImageKit/releases/download/continuous/appimagetool-x86_64.AppImage
chmod a+x appimagetool-x86_64.AppImage
ARCH=x86_64 ./appimagetool-x86_64.AppImage -v "${APPDIR}" "${OUTPUTDIR}/${PACKAGING_INSTALLER_NAME}-${TAG}-x86_64.AppImage"
```
I know Arch makepkg provides a SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH env variable with each run, but I am not supplying any command line options that would conflict with that. However, it looks like the `-mkfs-time 0` argument is getting hard-coded onto the command line at:
https://github.com/AppImage/AppImageKit/blob/7f9be6958ea3723d15f2e7a338e6da6e3d28baf2/src/appimagetool.c#L205-L206
Is there a way to disable this functionality, or do I need to unset the env variable in my script?
