Subversion allows users to tweak its revision datestamps by editing the svn:date
property. As a result, users have the opportunity to change its value to
something that uses a different-than-expected format (or maybe isn't a date at
all). This today causes operations like 'svn log' to croak with a "Bogus date"
error.
But is that really necessary? Could Subversion simply recognize the date as
bogus and mark it as such in the log output?
