Description Remy Suen CLA 2011-09-03 17:01:33 EDT
When browsing Git repositories in a browser, the 'Age' column often shows relative days such as "9 days ago".

Please see both 'Age' columns on the right and the left.
http://git.eclipse.org/c/platform/eclipse.platform.ui.git/

Can we change this to show absolute dates instead? And please show the time of the commit also if possible.

Thanks.

I think this might be a cgit thing, no?
Comment 2 Andrew Overholt CLA 2012-03-14 10:29:40 EDT
FWIW I actually like it :)
Comment 3 Denis Roy CLA 2012-03-14 10:32:01 EDT
Yes, this is a cgit thing... This issue us highly subjective.. I actually like it too.  Too bad cgit doesn't have some nifty login mechanism that allows users to set their own prefs  ;)

CGit... Subjective..  Not much I can do here.
