log: respect date_mode_explicit with --format:%gd
When we show a reflog selector (e.g., via "git log -g"), we perform some DWIM magic: while we normally show the entry's index (e.g., HEAD@{1}), if the user has given us a date with "--date", then we show a date-based select (e.g., HEAD@{yesterday}). However, we don't want to trigger this magic if the alternate date format we got was from the "log.date" configuration; that is not sufficiently strong context for us to invoke this particular magic. To fix this, commitf4ea32f
(improve reflog date/number heuristic, 2009-09-24) introduced a "date_mode_explicit" flag in rev_info. This flag is set only when we see a "--date" option on the command line, and we a vanilla date to the reflog code if the date was not explicit. Later, commit8f8f547
(Introduce new pretty formats %g[sdD] for reflog information, 2009-10-19) added another way to show selectors, and it did not respect the date_mode_explicit flag fromf4ea32f
. This patch propagates the date_mode_explicit flag to the pretty-print code, which can then use it to pass the appropriate date field to the reflog code. This brings the behavior of "%gd" in line with the other formats, and means that its output is independent of any user configuration.
