+Both the Maven and Gradle plugins allow the properties that are included in `git.properties` to be configured.

 TIP: The commit time in `git.properties` is expected to match the following format: `yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ssZ`.
 This is the default format for both plugins listed above.
 Using this format lets the time be parsed into a `Date` and its format, when serialized to JSON, to be controlled by Jackson's date serialization configuration settings.

 ==== Git Commit Information
 Another useful feature of the `info` endpoint is its ability to publish information about the state of your `git` source code repository when the project was built.
-If a `GitProperties` bean is available, the `git.branch`, `git.commit.id`, and `git.commit.time` properties are exposed.
+If a `GitProperties` bean is available, the `info` endpoint can be used to expose these properties.

+By default, the endpoint exposes `git.branch`, `git.commit.id`, and `git.commit.time` properties, if present.

 If you want to display the full git information (that is, the full content of `git.properties`), use the configprop:management.info.git.mode[] property, as follows:
