wrong time zone

[Rez P]

CVS files are checked in military time and with wrong time zone.



I just logged into our Linux server where CVS is being hosted and the date command returns
Tue Feb 23 16:22:33 PST 2010



Howerver a file checked in around 1pm today has the cvs $header $ information as 21:mm:ss. How do I get it to match the server time or PST time?



Thanks

No, CVS uses a 24 hour time, and stores everything as UTC.

Your CVS installation is working correctly. 2100 UTC is 1300 PST.

Great, thanks. Got worried there for a second that I didn't set something correctly. :)
