Indeed, the description of the option (which comes from
Documentation/rev-list-options.txt) doesn't describe all differences
between --date=default and --date=rfc2822.
A fuller list could be:
* There is no comma after the day-of-week
* The time zone is omitted when the local time zone is used
* Day-of-month and month are switched around
* Time-of-day and the year are switched around
CC'ing Peff, who wrote the list of exceptions in add00ba2de (date: make
"local" orthogonal to date format, 2015-09-03).
I don't think I had any particular reason to omit those other
differences. I probably just didn't notice them. Patches welcome.
