[PATCH 3/3] introduce "format" date-mode

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This feeds the format directly to strftime. Besides being a
little more flexible, the main advantage is that your system
strftime may know more about your locale's preferred format
(e.g., how to spell the days of the week).

 `--date=raw` shows the date in the internal raw Git format `%s %z` format.

+`--date=format:...` feeds the format `...` to your system `strftime`.
+Use `--date=format:%c` to show the date in your system locale's
+preferred format.  See the `strftime` manual for a complete list of
+format placeholders.

 `--date=default` shows timestamps in the original time zone
 (either committer's or author's).
