At least you do not have to worry > about Jan/Feb/Mar etc. Raw timestamps would be easiest. But this is for-each-ref, not git-log. Its %(authortime) macro in the --format string does not support any sort of date formatting options. So uh, no, --pretty=format won't help me here. I'd have to make code changes to for-each-ref to allow control of how timestamps are output. Then I'd have to put magic flags into git-gui to see what version of git I'm using and assume if the flag will work or not. And if it won't then I still have to fall back into the current Jan/Feb/Mar code that I have right now. So I'm actually not inclined right now to fix for-each-ref. But I probably should. Its going on my "Git todo pile". Which as everyone on this list knows is currently about 10x what I can actually accomplish in my natural lifetime. ;-) -- Shawn. - 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
