git: timezone and timestamp format

git timezone format timestamp timezone-offset
SandyBr picture SandyBr · Oct 4, 2011 · Viewed 32.5k times · Source

From git I can get the timestamp:

"2011-10-04 12:58:36 -0600"

but is there any way to show it as:

"2011-10-04 06:58:36"

So all I want is to get rid of the -0600 timezone offset. How can I do this? Thanks.

If you ask about git log, you can try and select most correct form from:

git log --date={relative,local,default,iso,rfc}

--date=local seems to be the best candidate.

To make this permanent, use git config --global log.date local.
