date representation: use ISO8601 rather than a specific locale

Dates, in particular in technical systems like Kallithea, are
better shown in a clear concise format like ISO8601 (YYYY-MM-DD)
than in a verbose format like 'Thu, Feb 26 2015'.

This commit changes all dates to ISO8601.

---
If desired, we could create two functions: one that returns ISO format and
another for the locale format. Depending on the usage, one or the other is
shown. I'm not very fond of that though, it looks inconsistent.
.. _git_support:

===========
GIT support
===========


Git support in Kallithea 1.3 was enabled by default. You need to have a git
client installed on the machine to make git fully work.

Although There is one limitation on git usage.

- large pushes requires a http server with chunked encoding support.

if you plan to use git you need to run Kallithea with some
http server that supports chunked encoding which git http protocol uses,
i recommend using waitress_ or gunicorn_ (linux only) for `paste` wsgi app
replacement. Starting from version 1.4 waitress_ is the default wsgi server
used in Kallithea.

To use, simply change change the following in the .ini file::

    use = egg:Paste#http

to::

    use = egg:waitress#main

or::

    use = egg:gunicorn#main


And comment out bellow options::

    threadpool_workers =
    threadpool_max_requests =
    use_threadpool =


You can simply run `paster serve` as usual.


You can always disable git/hg support by editing a
file **kallithea/__init__.py** and commenting out backends

.. code-block:: python

   BACKENDS = {
       'hg': 'Mercurial repository',
       #'git': 'Git repository',
   }
