Comment 1 Ondrej Vasik 2007-10-24 15:21:25 UTC
There was following entry for iso option in the past
-ITIMESPEC, --iso-8601[=TIMESPEC]  output date/time in ISO 8601 format.
            TIMESPEC=`date' for date only,
            `hours', `minutes', or `seconds' for date and
             time to the indicated precision.
             --iso-8601 without TIMESPEC defaults to `date'.

Was removed as --iso option is marked as deprecated in 5.90 release.  You should
use --rfc-3339=TIMESPEC instead of it. Closing as NOTABUG.
