Please see below full problem 'thread'

Actually, if the date is being returned from the Git plugin as 1970-01-17T04:01:10+0000 +0300), parsing and reformatting won't work. I think you need to open a bug against the Git plugin.

Hi,

I hope someone can help with this…

We use custom jelly email template, and it used to work fine. (it works if I roll back the git-plugin to 2.0.1), the date is showing as below in the email (seems like wrong unix time conversion)
CHANGES
by XXX:1970-01-17T04:01:10+0000 +0300)
this is an example of an email when we roll back to git-plugin 2.0.1:
by XXX:2014-03-24 16:54:00 +0200)
this is the section in the jelly template we use:
<j:forEach var="cs" items="${changeSet}" varStatus="loop">
<j:set var="hadChanges" value="true" />
<j:set var="aUser" value="${cs.hudsonUser}"/>
<TR>
<TD colspan="2" class="bg2">${spc}by
<B>${aUser!=null?aUser.displayName:cs.author.displayName}: </B>
<B>(${cs.date})</B>
<B>${cs.msgAnnotated}</B>
</TD>
I opened a bug and got the below reply… can anyone help here? I’m really unsure exactly what to do… I’m not a developer…
Thanks!

Looks like the git plugin changed the date format they used. https://github.com/jenkinsci/git-plugin/commit/430bdc9b6ed121d653ef2633d2109b259aa8687b

So what can we do to get the correct format using the email-ext plugin?...

Since the getDate() method returns a string, you'd have to parse the string back into a date object and then format the date how you want. If you need additional help, please use the mailing list as this is not a bug.
