当使用 DATE 格式的 x 坐标而不是使用 [日期坐标 = x] 时，如何指定 xtick={}？

Question

根据这个问题如何在 DATE x 轴上绘制回归图我发布了 Christian Feuersänger 的 MWE：

\documentclass{minimal}
\usepackage{pgfplots}
\usepgfplotslibrary{dateplot}
\begin{filecontents}{data.dat}
date            value1
2010-01-01      2
2010-01-02      10
2010-01-03      8
2010-01-04      15
\end{filecontents}
\usepackage{pgfplotstable}

% formats row \ticknum of the input table using '#3'
% #1: table name
% #2: column name
% #3: formatting instruction like \day.\month.\year
    \newcommand\datelabelsfromtable[3]{%
    \begingroup
    \countdef\result=\count200 %
    \pgfplotstablegetelem{\ticknum}{#2}\of{#1}%
    \pgfcalendardatetojulian{\pgfplotsretval}{\result}%
    \pgfcalendarjuliantodate{\result}\year\month\day
    %
    #3%
    \endgroup
}

\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}

\begin{axis}[
x tick label style={yshift=-3pt,xshift=-4pt,rotate=-30,anchor=west},
xticklabel={\datelabelsfromtable{data.dat}{date}{\day.\month.\year}},
xtick=data,
]
\addplot table [x expr=\coordindex,y=value1] {data.dat};
\addplot table [x expr=\coordindex, y={create col/linear regression={y=value1}}] {data.dat};
\end{axis}

\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

回归线在这里起作用了，我希望我理解了他的命令。使用我的数据，我希望 PGF 使用 .dat 文件内我指定的所有数据点。但是，我不想使用

xtick=data,

但我想指定为哪些数据点写标签，因为图表的前半部分并不那么重要，但最后我想有更多的刻度。使用来自 MWE 的示例数据，我会想到这样的东西，跳过 2010-01-02：

xtick={2010-01-01, 2010-01-03, 2010-01-04}

我尝试了不同的版本，比如 {2010}，但总是收到错误（可能是因为 x 日期没有声明为 DATE？这样做也会导致错误）。

总结一下：

我如何使用 Feuersänger 的方法（或者如果有人在进行回归时有另一种使用日期的想法）但可以指定打印哪些刻度而不仅仅是使用 xtick = data？

使用来自的代码https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/372​​049/95441（正如您建议的那样平行问题）使用xtick那里的作品非常好......
