libfaketime modifies the system time for a single application

libfaketime intercepts various system calls that applications use to retrieve the current date and time. It can then report user-specified faked dates and times to these applications. This allows us to modify the system time an application sees without having to change the time system-wide. The faketime wrapper can be used from command line. Check the documentation on how to integrate into installed applications.

Port notes

With System Integrity Protection (SIP) enabled on macOS 10.11 El Capitan or later, it is not possible to override date and time for system binaries in /bin or /usr/bin as DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES will be ignored. This also applies to shell scripts invoked through #!/bin/sh or similar.
