gix-date v0.9.0

on GitHub

This is a breaking release as the time is gone and it's API isn't available publicly anymore.

Bug Fixes

• Don't panic on dates too far in the past when parsing them.

Other

• switch from time to jiff
  This swaps out time for jiff. It doesn't completely remove time
  from the dependency tree. The last remaining use of time is in
  prodash, outside of the gitoxide project.

• bump MSRV to Rust 1.70
  The bump to Rust 1.70 (released over 1 year ago) is needed since that's
  Jiff current MSRV. This doesn't bump the MSRV of the broader gitoxide
  project, however, so this is probably wrong or incomplete.

• make time a private dependency of gix-date
  This should make the swap from time to jiff easier.

  This comment[1] indicates that it's okay for time to be a public
  dependency, but since this patch series is about swapping time for
  jiff, it seemed appropriate to take this step first. And in
  particular, it was almost already the case that time was a private
  dependency of gix-date. The only thing we really had to button up was
  the exposure of time's custom formatting description language.

  Jiff doesn't support time's custom formatting machinery and instead
  uses a strftime/strptime like API. We could expose that instead, but
  since nothing (other than a test) was actually utilizing time's custom
  formatting machinery external to gix-date, I figured we might as well
  completely encapsulate it.
