Yes. That output is from "git commit", and is not from any command in the "git log" family. Besides, it way predates the introduction of log.date configuration variable. This could be a XY problem. Can you tell us why you care? What motivates you to see that date (and optionally Author when the author is different from the current user) output in a specific format---it is meant for human consumption so "I run 'git commit' in a script and scrape its output" would not be it. Thanks.
