The strftime function probably isn't documented because it's not a Ruby thing.
It's a standard C library function that Ruby just provides an interface to.
That's not an excuse, of course, but there are more important and Ruby-specific
things whose documentation is a higher priority.

The standard manual page for strftime from section 3 of the Unix Programmer's
Manual is reproduced in various places around the web.  The first google
hit for "strftime man page" was this:
