Default date is not formatted correctly

[mattymess]

I set my date in my controller with date = new Date() and set date-format="MM/dd/yyyy", but when the page renders the first time, the value in the input box is not formatted at all.

The date doesn't get formatted until I select a date from the datepicker-popup.

Hi Matt,

Thank you for taking the time to report this issue. This problem is caused by a non backwards compatible change in angularjs-1.3.0 rc0, which assigns a string representation of a model object to ngModel.$viewValue variable. You can find more information at angular-ui/bootstrap#2659 Until the issue is fixed, please consider the current stable version of angularjs (1.2)

Hey Vitalii,

Thanks for the response. I'll downgrade to angular's latest until this is fixed. Appreciate the work you put in on this module.
