It is really useful to see the "ago" time in days, weeks, then months, but once it goes to years it loses a lot of precision. "1 year ago" can mean 365 days or it can mean (2 years - 1 day).

I think knowing something was 14 months ago would be more useful than an ambiguous "1 year" = 12-24 months ago. But after 24 months I wouldn't want as much precision.

Perhaps the best option would be to show "1 year, 2 months ago" instead of an arbitrary cutoff (like 12 or 24) for when months turn into years.

Maybe there's a way to use something from agoOrDate or gitlens.defaultDateSource?
