# Description
Closes: #9891
I also think it's good to keep command name consistency.
And moving `date format` to deprecated.
# User-Facing Changes
Running `date format` will lead to deprecate message:
```nushell
❯ "2021-10-22 20:00:12 +01:00" | date format
Error: nu:🐚:deprecated_command
× Deprecated command date format
╭─[entry #28:1:1]
1 │ "2021-10-22 20:00:12 +01:00" | date format
· ─────┬─────
· ╰── 'date format' is deprecated. Please use 'format date' instead.
╰────
```
* Add `date format --list`, and make format string optional (providing default)
* Make DRY
`into datetime --list` now uses `generate_strfttime_list` from `date format --list`
* refactor strftime to use current datetime
* Fix formatting of specification descriptions
Fixes issues caused when copying directly from docs.rs
* Change default format to rfc2822
Perhaps to make it more DRY, functions from `into datetime` can be used. However, currently `into datetime` is a bit tricky to use as it needs a separate time zone argument.
* Tweak in-shell docs to match modified behavior
* Show %#z format specifier in `into datetime --list` only
* cargo fmt
* Satisfy clippy
