"hg diff" outputs a date in the diff headers after the filenames
that are diff'ed. This date is in some obscure American format.
The ISO-8601 standard should be used instead, or the locales. The
date format could also be configurable (with a sensible default
format).

  Hi,

  I'm the Debian maintainer for mercurial. I forward this bug that should be
addressed upstream from my point of view. This is the Debian bug #448923
