This would be interesting in the context of DOXIASITETOOLS-329 as well. I
think we should change the API in this case in a backwards compatible way (i.e.
introduce a new getter method returning a `java.time.OffsetDateTime` and
deprecate the old method returning a String). For example JGit exposes the date
as int on
https://git.eclipse.org/c/jgit/jgit.git/tree/org.eclipse.jgit/src/org/eclipse/jgit/revwalk/RevCommit.java#n321
(not sure what it stands for).
[Git log](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-log) can be used like this `git log
-1 --format=%ct` to retrieve the unix epoch. The timezone can be adjusted in
which to emit via
https://git-scm.com/docs/git-log#Documentation/git-log.txt---dateltformatgt.
> InfoItem.lastChangedDate is leaky abstraction

> Key: SCM-914
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SCM-914
> Project: Maven SCM (Moved to GitHub Issues)
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: maven-scm-api
> Reporter: Tobias Gruetzmacher
> Assignee: Konrad Windszus
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.1.0
>
>
> I was looking into implementing
> [https://github.com/mojohaus/buildnumber-maven-plugin/pull/16] in a sane way,
> but had to conclude that InfoItem.lastChangedDate is unfortunately just a
> string and not a Data, so will leak the console output of different providers
> to the user.
> Does anybody see a sane way to fix this API and create a sane abstraction for
> different SCMs? If yes, I would try to go ahead with the following tasks:
> # Fix InfoItem, so that lastChangedDate is a Date
> # Fix the current providers filling this field (svnexe and svnjava AFAICS -
> aside: why is svnjava not part of the maven-scm repository?)
> # Implement this feature for at least gitexe (and maybe jgit) so I can use
> it for my usecase
> Ideas, comments?
