What is Bitbucket (+ others): absolute commit date?
Bitbucket (+ others): Absolute Commit Date is a Chrome extension that reforms date representations from relative format (like 'XXXX time ago') into absolute format in Bitbucket.org, other Atlassian domains, and in any domain, by using customizable domain regular expression matching. The extension is ideal for users who want more precise time and date tracking for Bitbucket commits and entries - it automatically works with existing date information, dynamically responds to pagination and pjax updates, and offers four date format presets for user convenience.

Extension summary

Shows actual (absolute) date of commits (and other date-containing fields) for Bitbucket.org, *.atlassian.com and others domains which have <time> tags.

By default it works only for Bitbucket.org, but you can enable it anywhere just fill "Domain regexp" with ".*" (dot asterisk) or valid regexp which matches desired domains. Careful - "Domain regexp" is regexp text without slashes and flags, it is YOUR_REGEXP in "/YOUR_REGEXP/i" record. Also now you can choose date format from 4 presets. Converts (automatically, based on existing date inside time tag) dates on from relative format "XXXX time ago" to absolute (actual). Just install it, reload page and enjoy fully qualified dates. Also it watches for events such as pagination and pjax updates and correctly updates dates.

Doesn't change dates like "minutes ago", "days ago". Also broke valid dates

It doesn't seem to work. Maybe I'm missing some setup or maybe a change in bitbucket broke this extension? If someone could help me with this that'd be nice because I could make good use of this extension.

Life saver, thank you!!! Works exactly as described and is everything I hoped for. Was driving me crazy seeing this has been reported to Atlassian but is being ignored for some odd reason.
