5.6 Dates
=========
The protocol contains times and dates in various places.
For the `-D' option to the `annotate', `co', `diff', `export',
`history', `rannotate', `rdiff', `rtag', `tag', and `update' requests,
the server should support two formats:
26 May 1997 13:01:40 -0000 ; RFC 822 as modified by RFC 1123
5/26/1997 13:01:40 GMT ; traditional
The former format is preferred; the latter however is sent by the CVS
command line client (versions 1.5 through at least 1.9).
For the `-d' option to the `log' and `rlog' requests, servers should
at least support RFC 822/1123 format. Clients are encouraged to use
this format too (the command line CVS client, version 1.10 and older,
just passed along the date format specified by the user, however).
The `Mod-time' response and `Checkin-time' request use RFC 822/1123
format (see the descriptions of that response and request for details).
For `Notify', see the description of that request.
