Re: [PATCH] Can show relative date of the commit with future timestamp

I find an interesting and useful usage of git: todo/timeline. For this purpose I just make a git repo and all the commits with specified timestamp: some in the past, e.g. the date I was born; some in the future, e.g. todo list.

I config my ~/.gitconfig as below:
[alias]
    lg1 = log --graph --all --format=format:'%C(bold blue)%h%C(reset)
- %C(bold green)(%cr)%C(reset) %C(green)%s%C(reset) %C(bold white)―
%cn%C(reset)%C(bold yellow)%d%C(reset)' --abbrev-commit
--date=relative
    lg = !"git lg1"
    todo = !"git lg" | grep future | grep --color -E
'future|days|hours|minutes|seconds'

And I take a screenshot of it, which is colorful and more impressive FYI. The link is below. https://www.box.com/s/84b9cf402ea9419c7fe2

The link is just a picture and safe.

Except that, I think to give some accurate relative date of future timestamp commit is also not bad. If I make this kind of commit, I hope not only to see "in the future", but also to see "how long/far in the future".

BR, Tom
