\code{"\%a \%b \%d \%H:\%M:\%S \%Y"} which matches the formatting

the local \UNIX{} documentation for restrictions or additional
supported directives. If \var{string} cannot be parsed according to
\var{format}, \exception{ValueError} is raised. Values which are not
provided as part of the input string are filled in with default
values; the specific values are platform-dependent as the XPG standard
does not provide sufficient information to constrain the result.

according to \var{format}, \exception{ValueError} is raised. If the
string to be parsed has excess data after parsing,
\exception{ValueError} is raised. The default values used to fill in
any missing data is \code{(1900, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, -1)} .
Support for the \code{\%Z} directive is based on the values contained in
\code{tzname} and whether \code{daylight} is true. Because of this
it is platform-specifc sans recognition for UTC and GMT which are
always known (and are considered to be non-daylight savings
timezones).
