I don't think we have actually accepted the ctime-string format since switchng over, so no existing git repositories will have them. The commit date parsing just does a "strtoul()" in parse_commit_date(). So I wouldn't expect convert-objects to be needed - or rather, it was needed 2.5 _years_ ago, and we've not supported those early broken formats since, afaik.
