I’ve added a formats.py file to my django project to set the date format to display dd/mm/yyyy throughout the application.
However people must be able to enter a date as d/m/yy also. If you were to enter 1/1/49 django saves this as 01/01/2049. How does it decide I meant 2049 and not 1949?
I want to be able to control this, without having to write out validation for something it seem Django does already.
This is actually a POSIX and ISO C standard which Python inherited, and in turn Django: values 69–99 are mapped to 1969–1999, and values 0–68 are mapped to 2000–2068. It is not configurable short of writing your own.
