[PATCH v2 0/3] Phase out non-reentrant time functions

[Doan Tran Cong Danh <congdanhqx@gmail.com>]

gmtime/localtime is considered unsafe in multithread environment.

git was started as single-thread application, but we have some
multi-thread code, right now.

replace all usage of gmtime/localtime by their respective reentrant ones.

On most POSIX systems, we won't notice any differences in performance,
since they implemented gmtime and gmtime_r mostly the same.

On Windows, we may be taxed, since gmtime_r and localtime_r is our compat
functions, because we memcpy from returned data of gmtime/localtime.

To address that, I made patch #3 and included it together with this series.
I'm not sure how much portable it is.


Doan Tran Cong Danh (3):
  date.c: switch to reentrant {gm,local}time_r
  archive-zip.c: switch to reentrant localtime_r
  mingw: use {gm,local}time_s as backend for {gm,local}time_r
