Linus Torvalds	68849b5442	date handling: handle "AM"/"PM" on time And be a bitmore careful about matching: if we don't recognize a word or a number, we skip the whole thing, rather than trying the next character in that word/number. Finally: since ctime() adds the final '\n', don't add another one in test-date.	20 years ago
Linus Torvalds	198b0fb635	date.c: allow even more varied time formats (and some added checks for truly non-sensical stuff)	20 years ago
Linus Torvalds	7f26664f1f	date.c: fix printout of timezone offsets that aren't exact hours We'd get the sign wrong for the minutes part of a negative offset.	20 years ago
Linus Torvalds	92e2311b6c	date.c: only use the TZ names if we don't have anything better. Also, add EEST (hey, it's Finland).	20 years ago
Linus Torvalds	5e2a78a410	date.c: split up dst information in the timezone table This still doesn't actually really _use_ it properly, nor make any distinction between different DST rules, but at least we could (if we wanted to) fake it a bit better. Right now the code actually still says "it's always summer". I'm from Finland, I don't like winter.	20 years ago
Linus Torvalds	a90588821a	date.c: fix parsing of dates in mm/dd/yy format We looked at the year one character too early, and we didn't accept a two-character year date after 2000.	20 years ago
Linus Torvalds	eaa8512923	date.c: use the local timezone if none specified	20 years ago
Linus Torvalds	89967023da	Make the date parsing accept pretty much any random crap. This date parser turns line-noise into a date. Cool.	20 years ago
Edgar Toernig	ecee9d9e79	[PATCH] Do date parsing by hand... ...since everything out there is either strange (libc mktime has issues with timezones) or introduces unnecessary dependencies for people (libcurl). This goes back to the old date parsing, but moves it out into a file of its own, and does the "struct tm" to "seconds since epoch" handling by hand. I grepped through the tz-database and it seems there's one "country" left that has non-60-minute DST: Lord Howe Island. All others dropped that before 1970.	20 years ago
