Beat Bolli 466fb6742d pretty: provide a strict ISO 8601 date format
Git's "ISO" date format does not really conform to the ISO 8601
standard due to small differences, and it cannot be parsed by ISO
8601-only parsers, e.g. those of XML toolchains.

The output from "--date=iso" deviates from ISO 8601 in these ways:

  - a space instead of the `T` date/time delimiter
  - a space between time and time zone
  - no colon between hours and minutes of the time zone

Add a strict ISO 8601 date format for displaying committer and
author dates.  Use the '%aI' and '%cI' format specifiers and add
'--date=iso-strict' or '--date=iso8601-strict' date format names.

See http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/255879 and
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/52414/focus=52585
for discussion.

DESCRIPTION
-----------
List commits that are reachable by following the `parent` links from the
given commit(s), but exclude commits that are reachable from the one(s)
given with a '{caret}' in front of them. The output is given in reverse
chronological order by default.
You can think of this as a set operation. Commits given on the command
line form a set of commits that are reachable from any of them, and then
commits reachable from any of the ones given with '{caret}' in front are
subtracted from that set. The remaining commits are what comes out in the
command's output. Various other options and paths parameters can be used
to further limit the result.
Thus, the following command:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
$ git rev-list foo bar ^baz
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
means "list all the commits which are reachable from 'foo' or 'bar', but
not from 'baz'".
A special notation "'<commit1>'..'<commit2>'" can be used as a
short-hand for "{caret}'<commit1>' '<commit2>'". For example, either of
the following may be used interchangeably:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
$ git rev-list origin..HEAD
$ git rev-list HEAD ^origin
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Another special notation is "'<commit1>'...'<commit2>'" which is useful
for merges. The resulting set of commits is the symmetric difference
between the two operands. The following two commands are equivalent:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
$ git rev-list A B --not $(git merge-base --all A B)
$ git rev-list A...B
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
'rev-list' is a very essential Git command, since it
provides the ability to build and traverse commit ancestry graphs. For
this reason, it has a lot of different options that enables it to be
used by commands as different as 'git bisect' and
'git repack'.
