Hello,

This is my patch for the GSoC microproject #10:

Rewrite commit.c:record_author_date() to use skip_prefix(). 
Are there other places in this file where skip_prefix() would be more 
readable than starts_with()?

Since skip_prefix() and starts_with() implement the same functionality with different
return values, they can be interchanged easily.

Other usage of starts_with() in the same file can be found with

$ grep -n starts_with commit.c

1116:		else if (starts_with(line, gpg_sig_header) &&
1196:		if (starts_with(buf, sigcheck_gpg_status[i].check + 1)) {

I have a query,should I tackle a bug from the mailing lists or research about the proposal 
and present a rough draft?

Cheers,
Tanay Abhra.
