Not only is it useful, I'd like to see a way to make it my default!
(By my default here I mean a .gitconfig thing that I can set,
but not making it the git out-of-the-box default.)

I don't like looking at timestamps in other people's timezones.
If git-log is going to go through the motions of performing unicode
translations for my tty, and indent messages, and convert the epoch
seconds to a human readable date, it most certainly can be nice and
put the times into my default frame of reference.  Which is whatever
my congresscritters have decided the time is this month...  ;-)
