I've done so, but my customer won't. He wants the code in his svn-repo.

That would mean adding "Date: ..." to the log message. Of course, I could do that. But then my customer would get confused about these extra lines in the svn log.

It seems really to complicated, I think I'll just make a script, that saves all important information (date, message, etc.) at every git-commit to some kind of personal log-file, that I can use when I need to search the history by date.

Nevertheless thanks for your efforts. Kind regards,
