[PATCH] Add date format --local-zone

From: Junio C Hamano <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:43:06

This adds --local-zone option to log family of commands, to
display timestamps in user's local timezone.

 * I got tired of looking at +0000 timestamps on commits
   imported from CVS at day-job.  Does not seem to break
   existing tests, but I am not sure if this is useful.

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...  ;-)

I think that it will become more convenient at some stage to add 
"--date=local", and have a common option parser in date.c.

Why not go the full nine yards, and make this a full int? It's not like 
rev_info is allocated a million times...

I think it's useful (read: I've occasionally wanted it), but I think we 
should make the date option syntax be more extensible.

Ie, it would be better, I think, to use a

	--date=local
	--date=relative
	--date=UTC
	...

kind of syntax, than have each date flag be different ("--relative-date" 
vs "--local-zone"?).

Btw, when you do "--local-zone", you should drop the TZ printout too, I 
think. It doesn't seem to make any sense to give the *wrong* timezone.

Probably.

I do not think the definition of "wrong" is so clear.

I would not disagree that showing the authordate in timezone the
author was not in means --local-zone is showing a wrong zone,
but "show timestamps in _my_ zone" is what the option is
specifically asking for.

Originally I did it without timezone, but later I found it
amusing to see "log --since=2007-03-10 --until=2007-03-12".

	Note: in TZ=US/Pacific you would see -0700 and -0800
	during the above commit-time range.

The timezone is interesting to see: it is a hint as to _where_ the
commit is coming from. Obviously not reliable, it can be amusing.

[PATCH 1/2] Add --date={local,relative,default}

From: Junio C Hamano <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:43:07

This adds --date={local,relative,default} option to log family of commands,
to allow displaying timestamps in user's local timezone, relative time, or
the default format.

Existing --relative-date option is a synonym of --date=relative; we could
probably deprecate it in the long run.

  And I obviously agree.

Re: [PATCH 1/2] Add --date={local,relative,default}

+`--date=relative` shows dates relative to the current time,
+e.g. "2 hours ago".
++
+`--date=local` shows timestamps in user's local timezone.
++
+`--date=default` shows timestamps in the original timezone
+(either committer's or author's).
Why is "default" called "default" and not, say, "original"?  What if I
changed the default format to "local" using local configuration.  What
would "default" show then?
