Hello,
With the recent changes to the committer graphs, I again was reminded
how much I hate the YYYY/MM/DD format (I can't help it ...). Given that
I guess& hope you mean you like linear decreasing order but
dislike '/' as a delimeter& want to swap from '/' to '-' as in ISO ?
Exactly.
this almost looks like ISO 8601, but is an unreadable variant of it, I
would like to aggressively change this throughout the tree.
I'd like to start with minor stuff like share/misc/*.dot. Then probably
src/UPDATING, and ports/UPDATING after I've identified the consumers of
these docs.
Do you mean you would like to swap eg src/UPDATING 20100720 to eg
2010-07-20 ? That would be more readable.
Yes, I think for lists of dates like in UPDATING or automatically
generated date output like syslogd, the ISO8601 format only has
advantages.
I am using ISO8601 date + time format for years in my scripts, logs
etc., so it would be nice to have it on all places of FreeBSD as a
standard format.
I think 2010-07-20 is really readable than 20100720 or 2010/07/20 and
"2011-01-06 00:03:50" is better than "Jan 6 00:03:50" (in logs)
