Cannot Zip project when babel is installed: ZIP does not support timestamps before 1980

See original GitHub issue

Bug Report

I would like to work on a fix!

Current behavior I’m using aws sam to deploy lambdas with babel.

I have babel in dependencies

  "dependencies": {
    "@babel/runtime": "^7.9.2",
}

I’m running

npm install
npm run build 
sam build
sam deploy

process breaks on sam deploy with error

the only project with date older than 1980 I could find is babel

find -not -newermt ‘jan 01, 1980’

Possible Solution

moving file timestamp in tarball in npm to more safe 1980+ I know that npm locks dates for tarballed files, but usually date is in 1985 which is supported by zip.

Additional context this causes problems in many lambdas and really annoying. there are simple workaround, but this potentially breaks caching. I’m not sure if babel project is right place, but It will be awesome if you could fix this (moving file date to more safe 1980+) or point in which project this behavior is maintained

@arcanis My feelings for zip went from “neutral” to “make it disappear” in the last 30 mins 🙃

We’re planning to make the release by the end of the week, will ping here once it’s published (or you can use yarn set version from sources to use master, which is very close from what will be shipped).
