I suggest adding __ISODATE__ and __ISOTIMESTAMP__ which should both use ISO8601 date formats. See https://github.com/dlang/dlang.org/pull/2747#issuecomment-581239122

Check if https://dlang.org/changelog/2.092.0.html#reproducible-builds solves the problem.

If we add more time stamps, one should have the timezone information in it (ideally UTC offset with seconds). Without the timezone information, the ``__TIMESTAMP__`` token doesn't scale especially with CI systems in multiple time zones.

I think that https://dlang.org/changelog/2.092.0.html#reproducible-builds elegantly solves this issue.
