Hello,
I'm using the latest version.
$ git version
git version 2.21.0.392.gf8f6787159e-goog
WORKS: the following prints out the date and time in my local timezone.
$ git log '--date=format-local:%Y%m%d %H%M%S %z (%Z)' --format=%cd -n1
20190401 170250 -0400 (EDT)
WORKS: "TZ=UTC" is respected. It prints time in UTC.
$ TZ=UTC git log '--date=format-local:%Y%m%d %H%M%S %z (%Z)'
--format=%cd -n1
20190401 210250 +0000 (UTC)
BROKEN: anything other than UTC reports wrong date.
$ TZ=KST git log '--date=format-local:%Y%m%d %H%M%S %z (%Z)'
--format=%cd -n1
20190401 210250 +0000 (KST)
The time is in UTC. Worse, %Z respects TZ=KST, which is in conflict with %z.
The symptom is same with "--date=local". It respects TZ=UTC but
nothing other than TZ=UTC.
Regards,
Chanseok
