Codex:

Converts given MySQL date string into a different format.

- $format should be a PHP date format string. - 'U' and 'G' formats will return an integer sum of timestamp with timezone offset. - $date is expected to be local time in MySQL format (Y-m-d H:i:s). Historically UTC time could be passed to the function to produce Unix timestamp. If $translate is true then the given date and format string will be passed to wp_date() for translation.
