[PATCH v3] date: make "iso-strict" conforming for the UTC timezone

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



ISO 8601-1:2020-12 specifies that a zero timezone offset must be denoted
with a "Z" suffix instead of the numeric "+00:00". Add the correponding
special case to show_date() and a new test.

Changing an established output format which might be depended on by
scripts is always problematic, but here we choose to adhere more closely
to the published standard.
