Can anybody reproduce the following behaviour? Basically all the  
author and committer date formats documented in the git-show man page  
work except for "%ai" and "%ci". This is with Git 1.5.2.4 running on  
Darwin 9.0.0:

$ git show -s --pretty=format:"%ad"
Sun Oct 28 20:58:39 2007 +0100
$ git show -s --pretty=format:"%aD"
Sun, 28 Oct 2007 20:58:39 +0100
$ git show -s --pretty=format:"%ar"
17 hours ago
$ git show -s --pretty=format:"%at"
1193601519
$ git show -s --pretty=format:"%ai"
%ai
$ git show -s --pretty=format:"%cd"
Sun Oct 28 20:58:39 2007 +0100
$ git show -s --pretty=format:"%cD"
Sun, 28 Oct 2007 20:58:39 +0100
$ git show -s --pretty=format:"%cr"
17 hours ago
$ git show -s --pretty=format:"%ct"
1193601519
$ git show -s --pretty=format:"%ci"
%ci

Cheers,

It was added in v1.5.3-rc2~17.

Usually, it is a good idea to use the documentation which corresponds with 
the git version you are using ;-)

Hth,

Doh... funny... This was only yesterday; I installed 1.5.2.4  
(stupidly, a typo) and the 1.5.3.4 man pages. If I'd just done a "git  
stash" or something I would've realized that I was using an older  
version...

Cheers,
Wincent
