Github was the first thing I thought of when reading this. My only use case for the commit date is to quickly check if a certain commit merged before a branch was automatically cut, so I need the day of the week and time, not "11 days ago."

Fortunately, if you hover over the relative date, it will expand to show the exact date time, but it would be nice if this were swapped.
