I'm curious why the time part is even necessary, or at least,
necessary at that accuracy.
Day seems to be all that is necessary at most, and even then, you
could reduce that down to a single number ( because its assumed to be
from "now" to "a weekago" and the inference can be made, and maybe for
convenience, use "days ago", or somethig.

If you're needing the timestamps to try work out which commit
something happened, the SHA1 is going to prove far more useful at
that.
