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.

Documentation/rev-list-options.txt should be updated to mention that %Z
is passed to strftime in the local case, no?

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.

I don't have a Windows system to test this on, but from the output Dscho
provided earlier, I believe this should pass.

The first patch applies with some fuzz on master of Git for Windows, the
second one applies cleanly.  A "typedef unsigned long timestamp_t;" is
required to compile it; such a fixup won't be needed for long, I guess.
t0006 succeeds.
