Heya,

I noticed that we parse
GIT_COMMITTER_DATE="31-05-2008 11:30pm" as "31st of July at 23:30 +0200"
whereas we parse
GIT_COMMITTER_DATE="01-06-2008 11:30pm" as "6th of January at 23:30 +0100"

Not only is it strange that we accept both orders (since apparently we
don't resort to the latter order unless the first digit > 12), but
it's also weird that the timezone changes based on which option was
chosen! What does the list think about this? Is this "normal"
behavior? If not, what (if anything) should we do about it?
