Subject: Localization: Timestamps get wrong if using different locales
Date: Sun, 05 Aug 2012 11:08:56 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <501E3828.40708@web.de> (raw)
Hello!
Running this commands locally (german locale) lead to some wrong dates
for the patches upstream.
git format-patch -o patches origin
git send-email --compose --no-chain-reply-to --to some@address.com
--suppress-cc=author patches/0001-l10n-Turkish-update.patch
The local
Date: Sat, 4 Aug 2012
became
Wed, 8 Dec 2004
So it looks like matching DD=04=YY MM=08=DD and YY=12=MM
German date format usually looks DD.MM.YYYY
A workaround for me was running the lines with LANGUAGE=en
I am using
git-send-email 1.7.10.4
with the patch from here
http://www.mail-archive.com/git@vger.kernel.org/msg05240.html
but I do not expect this to do any harm here.
Shall I provide more information?
Regards
Christoph
