From 7fcec48da90f95dc64268ebd4b3073ae9487fe4e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Junio C Hamano Date: Wed, 15 Apr 2015 08:43:58 -0700 Subject: parse_date_basic(): return early when given a bogus timestamp 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.

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.
