start-date doesn't work correctly on windows

[Sarkie]

version 0.53

Based on help

Gource v0.53
Usage: gource [options] [path]

Options:
-h, --help Help

-WIDTHxHEIGHT, --viewport Set viewport size
-f, --fullscreen Fullscreen
--screen SCREEN Screen number
--multi-sampling Enable multi-sampling
--no-vsync Disable vsync

--start-date 'YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss +tz' Start at a date and optional time
--stop-date 'YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss +tz' Stop at a date and optional time

You have to use ' ' but on windows, using cmd, I have to " "

d:\tools\gource\0.53>gource -f --title "Demo" --start-date '2025-01-01' --key -a 1 -s .05 --path D:/work/git/Demo
gource: invalid 'start-date' value
Try 'gource --help' for more information.

d:\tools\gource\0.53>gource -f --title "Demo" --start-date "2025-01-01" --key -a 1 -s .05 --path D:/work/git/Demo
processes

Or is this problem only for me?

Thanks!

I dont have this issue, using the command you provided without "--path ..." , in a git repository.

"gource -f --title "Demo" --start-date "2025-01-01" --key -a 1 -s .05"

I guess it's on your side.

@bitpaint the help says to use single quotes, you have used double quotes.
That's the issue
