Backdating git commits

I suffered a hard drive crash and lost a couple of project folders. These are personal projects and weren't hosted anywhere. I have a dozen compressed zip files of releases, but that's it.

Were I to start with the earliest version, how can I change the date of the commit to match the release date? My thinking is I could do this for each of the versions and have the commit date at least somewhat semblance of the development timeline/history.
