Subject: git-2.13.0: log --date=format:%z not working
Message-ID: <22824.29946.305300.380299@a1i15.kph.uni-mainz.de>

The following commands work as expected (using commit b06d364310
in the git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git repo as test case):

$ export TZ=Europe/Berlin
$ git --no-pager log -1 --pretty="%ad" --date=iso b06d364310
2017-05-09 23:26:02 +0900
$ git --no-pager log -1 --pretty="%ad" --date=iso-local b06d364310
2017-05-09 16:26:02 +0200

However, if I use explicit format: then the output of the time zone is
wrong:

$ git --no-pager log -1 --pretty="%ad" --date="format:%F %T %z" b06d364310
2017-05-09 23:26:02 +0000
$ git --no-pager log -1 --pretty="%ad" --date="format-local:%F %T %z" b06d364310
2017-05-09 16:26:02 +0000

I would expect the output to be the same as in the first two examples.
