git log --since doesn't include expected commits

git log by itself correctly shows all commits dated back to year 2017.

However, if I use git log --after='2018-01-01', the output doesn't have commits between 2018-02-05 and 2018-01-12 .

Why doesn't git log --since work? How do I fix it?

UPDATE:

I tried format %cd, which shows commit date. The results are the same .

The most likely problem here is that --since or --after tests the committer date, while %ad shows you the author date.

Normally, the committer date would be later than the author date, if the two differ, as the author date would be copied from an earlier commit that was cherry-picked or otherwise reworked in some fashion. Here the author date would be the time the original commit was created, while the committer date would be the time the commit you have now was made. So %ad might show a date in early January, even though the commit was finalized in late Jan or Feb.

Still, the fact that the two dates can be different is the most likely source of the issue. To see whether that's the case, look at any of the "missing" commits using --pretty=fuller or similar. You can do this with git show or git log, e.g.:

$ git log --no-walk --pretty=fuller  | sed 's/@/ /'
commit c05048d43925ab8edcb36663752c2b4541911231
Author:     Junio C Hamano <gitster pobox.com>
AuthorDate: Tue Sep 4 14:33:27 2018 -0700
Commit:     Junio C Hamano <gitster pobox.com>
CommitDate: Tue Sep 4 14:33:27 2018 -0700

    Git 2.19-rc2

    Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster pobox.com>

In this case the two dates are the same, but consider this commit:

commit 6c6ce21baa9b50d394bb8ed9878944504ffd57d8
Author:     Eric Sunshine <sunshine sunshineco.com>
AuthorDate: Fri Aug 31 04:33:42 2018 -0400
Commit:     Junio C Hamano <gitster pobox.com>
CommitDate: Fri Aug 31 12:05:24 2018 -0700

which shows how the author and committer are different people with different time-stamps.

(There is no --since equivalent that examines author date instead of committer date.)
