Hi, on 1.7.3.3, I have noticed that git --commit silently ignores the --date=<date> switch if <date> is not in the current format. for instance git --commit --amend --date="10.11.2010" creates a commit with the current date and time, because the --date argument misses the time. possibly, it would be better to stop with an error message. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
