Problem/Motivation

Only the default, short, medium and long formats are migrated. All other formats default to the fallback format and need to be reconfigured after migration.

Proposed resolution

Migrate all date formats.

Remaining tasks

User interface changes

API changes

This is a known issue https://www.drupal.org/node/2167633

I thought we decided against this because of the possible unlimited permutations and the limited support in core? Can't remember exactly though, it's been a while.

Surely the number of permutation is fixed by the ones specified in the setup? It seems to me that the difficulty is in reading all the defined custom formats.

Is there an equivalent issue for D7 to D8 date_format migrations? I notice there is a d6_date_formats.yml migration template, but not a d7_date_formats.yml. I intend to write a d7_date_formats.yml for a migration I am doing and wondered if I could help by contributing it.

I think this issue is won't fix based on the issue summary.

@Jo, they mention date formats on the D7 migration meta here #2500533: Upgrade path for System 7.x but there is no relevant issue. If you can create a new issue, add it to the meta it would be great if you would work on it.
