Parses a string into a Date using the default locale. Since this parser also supports relative formats (e.g. "yesterday") the caller can specify the reference date. These types of strings can be parsed:
  • "never"
  • "now"
  • "yesterday"
  • "(x) years|months|weeks|days|hours|minutes|seconds ago"
    Multiple specs can be combined like in "2 weeks 3 days ago". Instead of ' ' one can use '.' to seperate the words
  • "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss Z" (ISO)
  • "EEE, dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss Z" (RFC)
  • "yyyy-MM-dd"
  • "yyyy.MM.dd"
  • "MM/dd/yyyy",
  • "dd.MM.yyyy"
  • "EEE MMM dd HH:mm:ss yyyy Z" (DEFAULT)
  • "EEE MMM dd HH:mm:ss yyyy" (LOCAL)
Params:
  • dateStr – the string to be parsed
  • now – the base date which is used for the calculation of relative formats. E.g. if baseDate is "25.8.2012" then parsing of the string "1 week ago" would result in a date corresponding to "18.8.2012". This is used when a JGit command calls this parser often but wants a consistent starting point for calls.
    If set to null then the current time will be used instead.
Throws:
Returns:the parsed Date
