The syntax is

OR

date +"%FORMAT%FORMAT"

OR

date +"%FORMAT-%FORMAT"

Task: Display date in mm-dd-yy format

Open a terminal and type the following date command:
$ date +"%m-%d-%y"
Sample output:

02-27-07

To turn on 4 digit year display:
$ date +"%m-%d-%Y"
Just display date as mm/dd/yy format:
$ date +"%D"

Task: Display time only

Type the following command:
$ date +"%T"
Outputs:

19:55:04

To display locale's 12-hour clock time, enter:
$ date +"%r"
Outputs:

07:56:05 PM

To display time in HH:MM format, type:
$ date +"%H-%M"
Sample outputs:

00-50

How do I save time/date format to the shell variable?

Simply type the following command at the shell prompt:
$ NOW=$(date +"%m-%d-%Y")
To display a variable use echo / printf command:
$ echo $NOW

A sample shell script

#!/bin/bash
NOW=$(date +"%m-%d-%Y")
FILE="backup.$NOW.tar.gz"
echo "Backing up data to /nas42/backup.$NOW.tar.gz file, please wait..."
# rest of script
# tar xcvf /nas42/backup.$NOW.tar.gz /home/ /etc/ /var
