viewDate function does not notify component

[vin-car]

Calling viewDate function with a valid moment object as argument does not notify changes to the view. Something like $('#datetimepicker1').datetimepicker('viewDate', moment('11/21/2018', 'MM/DD/YYYY') ); has no effect on the datetimepicker.

Live example on this question on Stack Overflow using jQuery 2.1.1, moment 2.22.2, bootstrap 4.1.3 and tempus dominus 5.1.2.

I think that the issue is the _notifyEvent function that always returns without trigger event since:

if ((e.type === DateTimePicker.Event.CHANGE && (e.date && e.date.isSame(e.oldDate)) || !e.date && !e.oldDate))

is always true when this._viewUpdate() is called from viewDate function.
