ISO 8601 permits "reduced precision" time representations to omit the
seconds value or both the minutes and the seconds values. The
abbreviate times could look like 17:45 or 1745 to omit the seconds,
or simply as 17 to omit both the minutes and the seconds.
parse_date_basic accepts the 17:45 format but it rejects the other two.
Change it to accept 4-digit and 2-digit time values when they follow a
recognized date and a 'T'.

Fix a memory leak in the parse_date_format() function by providing a
new date_mode_release() companion function.
By using this in "t/helper/test-date.c" we can mark the
"t0006-date.sh" test as passing when git is compiled with
SANITIZE=leak, and whitelist it to run under
"GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true" by adding
"TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true" to the test itself.
The other tests that expose this memory leak (i.e. take the
"mode->type == DATE_STRFTIME" branch in parse_date_format()) are
"t6300-for-each-ref.sh" and "t7004-tag.sh". The former is due to an
easily fixed leak in "ref-filter.c", and brings the failures in
"t6300-for-each-ref.sh" down from 51 to 48.
Fixing the remaining leaks will have to wait until there's a
release_revisions() in "revision.c", as they have to do with leaks via
"struct rev_info".
There is also a leak in "builtin/blame.c" due to its call to
parse_date_format() to parse the "blame.date" configuration. However
as it declares a file-level "static struct date_mode blame_date_mode"
to track the data, LSAN will not report it as a leak. It's possible to
get valgrind(1) to complain about it with e.g.:
valgrind --leak-check=full --show-leak-kinds=all ./git -P -c blame.date=format:%Y blame README.md
But let's focus on things LSAN complains about, and are thus
observable with "TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true". We should get to
fixing memory leaks in "builtin/blame.c", but as doing so would
require some re-arrangement of cmd_blame() let's leave it for some
other time.

Move the declaration of the date.c functions from cache.h, and adjust

Similarly, the change to "builtin/{fast-import,show-branch,tag}.c"

use the "DATE_MODE()" macro we now define in date.h, let's have them
include it.
We could simply include this new header in "cache.h", but as this

including in it in the first place. By moving them out of cache.h

The strftime() function has a non-standard "%s" extension, which prints
the number of seconds since the epoch. But the "struct tm" we get has
already been adjusted for a particular time zone; going back to an epoch
time requires knowing that zone offset. Since strftime() doesn't take
such an argument, round-tripping to a "struct tm" and back to the "%s"
format may produce the wrong value (off by tz_offset seconds).
Since we're already passing in the zone offset courtesy of c3fbf81a85
(strbuf: let strbuf_addftime handle %z and %Z itself, 2017-06-15), we
can use that same value to adjust our epoch seconds accordingly.
Note that the description above makes it sound like strftime()'s "%s" is
useless (and really, the issue is shared by mktime(), which is what
strftime() would use under the hood). But it gets the two cases for
which it's designed correct:
- the result of gmtime() will have a zero offset, so no adjustment is
necessary
- the result of localtime() will be offset by the local zone offset,
and mktime() and strftime() are defined to assume this offset when
converting back (there's actually some magic here; some
implementations record this in the "struct tm", but we can't
portably access or manipulate it. But they somehow "know" whether a
"struct tm" is from gmtime() or localtime()).
This latter point means that "format-local:%s" actually works correctly
already, because in that case we rely on the system routines due to
6eced3ec5e (date: use localtime() for "-local" time formats,
2017-06-15). Our problem comes when trying to show times in the author's
zone, as the system routines provide no mechanism for converting in
non-local zones. So in those cases we have a "struct tm" that came from
gmtime(), but has been manipulated according to our offset.
The tests cover the broken round-trip by formatting "%s" for a time in a
non-system timezone. We use the made-up "+1234" here, which has two
advantages. One, we know it won't ever be the real system zone (and so
we're actually testing a case that would break). And two, since it has a
minute component, we're testing the full decoding of the +HHMM zone into
a number of seconds. Likewise, we test the "-1234" variant to make sure
there aren't any sign mistakes.
There's one final test, which covers "format-local:%s". As noted, this
already passes, but it's important to check that we didn't regress this
case. In particular, the caller in show_date() is relying on localtime()
to have done the zone adjustment, independent of any tz_offset we
compute ourselves. These should match up, since our local_tzoffset() is
likewise built around localtime(). But it would be easy for a caller to
forget to pass in a correct tz_offset to strbuf_addftime(). Fortunately
show_date() does this correctly (it has to because of the existing
handling of %z), and the test continues to pass. So this one is just
future-proofing against a change in our assumptions.

git-commit(1) says ISO-8601 is one of our supported date format.
ISO-8601 allows timestamps to have a fractional number of seconds.
We represent time only in terms of whole seconds, so we never bothered
parsing fractional seconds. However, it's better for us to parse and
throw away the fractional part than to refuse to parse the timestamp
at all.
And refusing parsing fractional second part may confuse the parse to
think fractional and timezone as day and month in this example:
2008-02-14 20:30:45.019-04:00
While doing this, make sure that we only interpret the number after the
second and the dot as fractional when and only when the date is known,
since only ISO-8601 allows the fractional part, and we've taught our
users to interpret "12:34:56.7.days.ago" as a way to specify a time
relative to current time.

Added the ability to specify mode 'foo' if the pager is being used by
using auto:foo syntax. Therefore, 'auto:human' date mode defaults to

This adds --date=human, which skips the timezone if it matches the
current time-zone, and doesn't print the whole date if that matches (ie
skip printing year for dates that are "this year", but also skip the
whole date itself if it's in the last few days and we can just say what
weekday it was).
For really recent dates (same day), use the relative date stamp, while
for old dates (year doesn't match), don't bother with time and timezone.
Also add 'auto' date mode, which defaults to human if we're using the
pager. So you can do
git config --add log.date auto
and your "git log" commands will show the human-legible format unless
you're scripting things.
Note that this time format still shows the timezone for recent enough
events (but not so recent that they show up as relative dates). You can
combine it with the "-local" suffix to never show timezones for an even
more simplified view.

When we see a time like "noon", we pass "12" to our date_time() helper,
which sets the hour to 12pm. If the current time is before noon, then we
wrap around to yesterday using date_yesterday(). But unlike the normal
calls to date_yesterday() from approxidate_alpha(), we pass a NULL "num"
parameter. Since c27cc94fad (approxidate: handle pending number for
"specials", 2018-11-02), that causes a segfault.
One way to fix this is by checking for NULL. But arguably date_time() is
abusing our helper by passing NULL in the first place (and this is the
only case where one of these "special" parsers is used this way). So
instead, let's have it just do the 1-day subtraction itself. It's still
just a one-liner due to our update_tm() helper.
Note that the test added here is a little funny, as we say "10am noon",
which makes the "10am" seem pointless. But this bug can only be
triggered when it the currently-parsed hour is before the special time.
The latest special time is "tea" at 1700, but t0006 uses a hard-coded
TEST_DATE_NOW of 1900. We could reset TEST_DATE_NOW, but that may lead
to confusion in other tests. Just saying "10am noon" makes this test
self-contained.

The approxidate parser has a table of special keywords like
"yesterday", "noon", "pm", etc. Some of these, like "pm", do
the right thing if we've recently seen a number: "3pm" is
what you'd think.
However, most of them do not look at or modify the
pending-number flag at all, which means a number may "jump"
across a significant keyword and be used unexpectedly. For
example, when parsing:
January 5th noon pm
we'd connect the "5" to "pm", and ignore it as a
day-of-month. This is obviously a bit silly, as "noon"
already implies "pm". And other mis-parsed things are
generally as silly ("January 5th noon, years ago" would
connect the 5 to "years", but probably nobody would type
that).
However, the fix is simple: when we see a keyword like
"noon", we should flush the pending number (as we would if
we hit another number, or the end of the string). In a few
of the specials that actually modify the day, we can simply
throw away the number (saying "Jan 5 yesterday" should not
respect the number at all).
Note that we have to either move or forward-declare the
static pending_number() to make it accessible to these
functions; this patch moves it.

As there is no portable way to pass timezone information to

impossible to produce. Teach our own strbuf_addftime to replace %z
and %Z with caller-supplied values to help working around this.
* rs/strbuf-addftime-zZ:
date: use localtime() for "-local" time formats
t0006: check --date=format zone offsets
strbuf: let strbuf_addftime handle %z and %Z itself
When we convert seconds-since-epochs timestamps into a
broken-down "struct tm", we do so by adjusting the timestamp
according to the known offset and then using gmtime() to
break down the result. This means that the resulting struct
"knows" that it's in GMT, even though the time it represents
is adjusted for a different zone. The fields where it stores
this data are not portably accessible, so we have no way to
override them to tell them the real zone info.
For the most part, this works. Our date-formatting routines
don't pay attention to these inaccessible fields, and use
the same tz info we provided for adjustment. The one
exception is when we call strftime(), whose %Z format
reveals this hidden timezone data.
We solved that by always showing the empty string for %Z.
This is allowed by POSIX, but not very helpful to the user.
We can't make this work in the general case, as there's no
portable function for setting an arbitrary timezone (and
anyway, we don't have the zone name for the author zones,
only their offsets).
But for the special case of the "-local" formats, we can
just skip the adjustment and use localtime() instead of
gmtime(). This makes --date=format-local:%Z work correctly,
showing the local timezone instead of an empty string.
The new test checks the result for "UTC", our default
test-lib value for $TZ. Using something like EST5 might be
more interesting, but the actual zone string is
system-dependent (for instance, on my system it expands to
just EST). Hopefully "UTC" is vanilla enough that every
system treats it the same.

There is no portable way to pass timezone information to strftime. Add
parameters for timezone offset and name to strbuf_addftime and let it
handle the timezone-related format specifiers %z and %Z internally.
Callers can opt out for %Z by passing NULL as timezone name. %z is
always handled internally -- this helps on Windows, where strftime would
expand it to a timezone name (same as %Z), in violation of POSIX.
Modifiers are not handled, e.g. %Ez is still passed to strftime.
Use an empty string as timezone name in show_date (the only current
caller) for now because we only have the timezone offset in non-local
mode. POSIX allows %Z to resolve to an empty string in case of missing
information.

where unsigned long is only 32-bit (notably on Windows, even in 64-bit
versions).
So let's just use a more appropriate data type instead. In preparation
for this, we introduce the new `timestamp_t` data type.
By necessity, this is a very, very large patch, as it has to replace all
timestamps' data type in one go.
As we will use a data type that is not necessarily identical to `time_t`,
we need to be very careful to use `time_t` whenever we interact with the
system functions, and `timestamp_t` everywhere else.

Currently, Git's source code treats all timestamps as if they were
unsigned longs. Therefore, it is okay to write "%lu" when printing them.
There is a substantial problem with that, though: at least on Windows,
time_t is *larger* than unsigned long, and hence we will want to switch
away from the ill-specified `unsigned long` data type.
So let's introduce the pseudo format "PRItime" (currently simply being
defined to "lu") to make it easier to change the data type used for
timestamps.

Currently, Git's source code represents all timestamps as `unsigned
long`. In preparation for using a more appropriate data type, let's
introduce a symbol `parse_timestamp` (currently being defined to
`strtoul`) where appropriate, so that we can later easily switch to,
say, use `strtoull()` instead.

We already have "--date=raw", which is a Unix epoch
timestamp plus a contextual timezone (either the author's or
the local). But one may not care about the timezone and just
want the epoch timestamp by itself. It's not hard to parse
the two apart, but if you are using a pretty-print format,
you may want git to show the "finished" form that the user
will see.
We can accomodate this by adding a new date format, "unix",
which is basically "raw" without the timezone.

When we want to know the local timezone offset at a given
timestamp, we compute it by asking for localtime() at the
given time, and comparing the offset to GMT at that time.
However, there's some juggling between time_t and "struct
tm" which happens, which involves calling our own
tm_to_time_t().
If that function returns an error (e.g., because it only
handles dates up to the year 2099), it returns "-1", which
we treat as a time_t, and is clearly bogus, leading to
bizarre timestamps (that seem to always adjust the time back
to (time_t)(uint32_t)-1, in the year 2106).
It's not a good idea for local_tzoffset() to simply die
here; it would make it hard to run "git log" on a repository
with funny timestamps. Instead, let's just treat such cases
as "zero offset".

Most of our "--date" modes are about the format of the date:
which items we show and in what order. But "--date=local" is
a bit of an oddball. It means "show the date in the normal
format, but using the local timezone". The timezone we use
is orthogonal to the actual format, and there is no reason
we could not have "localized iso8601", etc.
This patch adds a "local" boolean field to "struct
date_mode", and drops the DATE_LOCAL element from the
date_mode_type enum (it's now just DATE_NORMAL plus
local=1). The new feature is accessible to users by adding
"-local" to any date mode (e.g., "iso-local"), and we retain
"local" as an alias for "default-local" for backwards
compatibility.

In a following commit we will make "local" orthogonal to the format.
Although this will not apply to "relative", which does not use the
timezone, it applies to all other formats so move the timezone
conversion to the start of the function.

This feeds the format directly to strftime. Besides being a
little more flexible, the main advantage is that your system
strftime may know more about your locale's preferred format
(e.g., how to spell the days of the week).

In preparation for adding date modes that may carry extra
information beyond the mode itself, this patch converts the
date_mode enum into a struct.
Most of the conversion is fairly straightforward; we pass
the struct as a pointer and dereference the type field where
necessary. Locations that declare a date_mode can use a "{}"
constructor. However, the tricky case is where we use the
enum labels as constants, like:
show_date(t, tz, DATE_NORMAL);
Ideally we could say:
show_date(t, tz, &{ DATE_NORMAL });
but of course C does not allow that. Likewise, we cannot
cast the constant to a struct, because we need to pass an
actual address. Our options are basically:
1. Manually add a "struct date_mode d = { DATE_NORMAL }"
definition to each caller, and pass "&d". This makes
the callers uglier, because they sometimes do not even
have their own scope (e.g., they are inside a switch
statement).
2. Provide a pre-made global "date_normal" struct that can
be passed by address. We'd also need "date_rfc2822",
"date_iso8601", and so forth. But at least the ugliness
is defined in one place.
3. Provide a wrapper that generates the correct struct on
the fly. The big downside is that we end up pointing to
a single global, which makes our wrapper non-reentrant.
But show_date is already not reentrant, so it does not
matter.
This patch implements 3, along with a minor macro to keep
the size of the callers sane.

"git commit --date=now" or anything that relies on approxidate lost
the daylight-saving-time offset.
* jc/epochtime-wo-tz:
parse_date_basic(): let the system handle DST conversion
parse_date_basic(): return early when given a bogus timestamp
The function parses the input to compute the broken-down time in
"struct tm", and the GMT timezone offset. If the timezone offset
does not exist in the input, the broken-down time is turned into the
number of seconds since epoch both in the current timezone and in
GMT and the offset is computed as their difference.
However, we forgot to make sure tm.tm_isdst is set to -1 (i.e. let
the system figure out if DST is in effect in the current timezone
when turning the broken-down time to the number of seconds since
epoch); it is done so at the beginning of the function, but a call
to match_digit() in the function can lead to a call to gmtime_r() to
clobber the field.

When the input does not have GMT timezone offset, the code computes
it by computing the local and GMT time for the given timestamp. But
there is no point doing so if the given timestamp is known to be a
bogus one.

Traditionally we tried to avoid interpreting date strings given by
the user as future dates, e.g. GIT_COMMITTER_DATE=2014-12-10 when
used early November 2014 was taken as "October 12, 2014" because it
is likely that a date in the future, December 10, is a mistake.
Loosen this and do not tiebreak by future-ness of the date when
(1) ISO-like format is used, and
(2) the string can make sense interpreted as both y-m-d and y-d-m.
* jk/approxidate-avoid-y-d-m-over-future-dates:
approxidate: allow ISO-like dates far in the future
pass TIME_DATE_NOW to approxidate future-check
When we are parsing approxidate strings and we find three
numbers separate by one of ":/-.", we guess that it may be a
date. We feed the numbers to match_multi_number, which
checks whether it makes sense as a date in various orderings
(e.g., dd/mm/yy or mm/dd/yy, etc).
One of the checks we do is to see whether it is a date more
than 10 days in the future. This was added in 38035cf (date
parsing: be friendlier to our European friends.,
2006-04-05), and lets us guess that if it is currently April
2014, then "10/03/2014" is probably March 10th, not October
3rd.
This has a downside, though; if you want to be overly
generous with your "--until" date specification, we may
wrongly parse "2014-12-01" as "2014-01-12" (because the
latter is an in-the-past date). If the year is a future year
(i.e., both are future dates), it gets even weirder. Due to
the vagaries of approxidate, months _after_ the current date
(no matter the year) get flipped, but ones before do not.
This patch drops the "in the future" check for dates of this
form, letting us treat them always as yyyy-mm-dd, even if
they are in the future. This does not affect the normal
dd/mm/yyyy versus mm/dd/yyyy lookup, because this code path
only kicks in when the first number is greater than 70
(i.e., it must be a year, and cannot be either a date or a
month).
The one possible casualty is that "yyyy-dd-mm" is less
likely to be chosen over "yyyy-mm-dd". That's probably OK,
though because:
1. The difference happens only when the date is in the
future. Already we prefer yyyy-mm-dd for dates in the
past.
2. It's unclear whether anybody even uses yyyy-dd-mm
regularly. It does not appear in lists of common date
formats in Wikipedia[1,2].
3. Even if (2) is wrong, it is better to prefer ISO-like
dates, as that is consistent with what we use elsewhere
in git.
