How can I hide the number of seconds in the summary output?

[joelostblom]

Currently, the output of the summary command shows the number of seconds for each interval, like so:

Wk  Date       Day Tags               Start    End       Time    Sub

I find this difficult to read as there are so many numbers close to each other, so I would like to remove the seconds and only show hours and minutes (ideally rounded to the nearest minute) as shown in the examples in this file https://github.com/GothenburgBitFactory/timewarrior/blob/develop/doc/report.summary.txt#L26:

I couldn't find an option for this in the docs on configuration. Is this currently possible or is it a request for a new feature?

It is currently (≤ 1.9.1) not supported 👉🏻 request for a new feature

Thanks, I opened an issue here #722. Currently I use this (fragile) workaround:

timew summary :week | sed -e 's/\:[0-9][0-9]\( \|$\)/    /g' -e 's/ \([0-9]\{1,2\}:\)/    \1/'
