[PATCH v2 2/2] git-cvsimport: allow local timezone for commits

From: Chris Rorvick <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:55:00
Subsystem: documentation, the rest · Maintainers: Jonathan Corbet, Linus Torvalds

CVS patches are imported with the timezone offset of +0000 (UTC).
Allow timezone offsets to be calculated from the the local timezone by
adding -l to the command line or specifying cvsimport.l in the config.

This could be made the default behavior, as setting TZ=UTC in the
environment before doing the import is equivalent to the current
behavior.  But since a new default may be an unwelcome surprise to
some, make this new behavior available as an option.

+-l::
+	Use the local timezone for computing the timezone offset of commit
+	timestamps instead of the default of +0000 (UTC).  The `TZ`
+	environment variable can be used to override the default local
+	timezone, possibly useful if you are importing from a non-local
+	repository.
