Osipov, Michael (IN IT IN):
Interesting thought, but that also means that "git show" misbehaves because
it respects "log.date" and there is no "show.date". I still think that
consistency shouldn't be obeyed.
I'd be happy if someone could consider this improvement.
I've also been annoyed at this. Everything else respects the date
setting.
Bisect displays the commit through an invocation of "git diff-tree
--pretty". This command does not respect the log.date setting, but it
can be passed the --date parameter to format the date.
The question is what is the correct way of fixing this; is it to make
"git diff-tree --pretty" respect the "log.date" option, or to make
"git bisect" pass a --date pate parameter to the invocation of it?
Or perhaps everything should just be made support the "TIME_STYLE" that
GNU tools use? GNU ls is so much nicer to use with "TIME_STYLE=long-iso"
set.
