Provide a detailed description of the proposed feature
brew config
command outputs Core tap JSON
date and Core cask tap JSON
date. These date format is unknown format. I think ISO 8601 format is better.
What is the motivation for the feature?
This format don't write year. So we can't know year information.
How will the feature be relevant to at least 90% of Homebrew users?
I don't know
What alternatives to the feature have been considered?
I think ISO 8601 format is better.
@stmtk1 Why do you need to know the year?
No opinion on the format, but we should at least use a consistent one:
Core tap last commit: 41 minutes ago
Core tap JSON: 14 Feb 21:30 UTC
but we should at least use a consistent one:
Not necessarily. The inputs are very different so the outputs may be more useful as they are (which I tend to agree with on last commit being relative).

This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. It will be closed if no further activity occurs.
Sorry, passing on this.
Will review/consider a PR, though (but cannot promise it will be merged).
