Sequences
first, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, tenth, eleventh, and
twelfth.(second can’t be used as a sequence term, because it is used as a time
unit.)
Time Zones
CVS understands time zones expressed in offsets from UTC, such as +0700 (7
hours ahead) and -1130 (11 hours, 30 minutes behind). The format for these time
zones is +HHMM or -HHMM, where + means ahead of UTC and - means behind
UTC. CVS also understands time-zone abbreviations and ignores case and punc-
tuation when interpreting them.
Some of the time-zone abbreviations CVS recognizes are ambigu-
ous. CVS recognizes only one meaning for each of the ambiguous
time zones. However, the meaning that is recognized may vary
depending on your operating system, and on how CVS was config-
ured when it was compiled.
Table 13-2 shows the valid civilian time-zone abbreviations for CVS. Table 13-3
shows military time-zone abbreviations that CVS recognizes.
