Description
I'm working on some tests and I need to manually set the updatedAt attribute. However, it always gets updated to the current date. For example, the following code does not override the updatedAt attribute, as I expected it to:
instance.updateAttributes({
updatedAt: moment.utc().subtract(31, 'minutes').toDate()
}, {
silent: true
});
Am I missing something related to the proper use of silent?
I'm running on v2.1.3.

Trace how updatedAt is assigned during the update and determine what behavior should allow a manually supplied timestamp to persist.
