[PATCH] gitweb: Skip 'modification times' tests when no date parser available

From
Ramsay Jones <ramsay@ramsay1.demon.co.uk>
Date
Jun 12, 2012, 18:09 UTC
Message-ID
<4FD785E2.3020207@ramsay1.demon.co.uk>

The If-Modified-Since support in Gitweb is conditional on the availability of a date parser from either the HTTP::Date or Time::ParseDate modules. If a suitable parser is not available, then the corresponding 'modification times' tests should be skipped.

Introduce the DATE_PARSER test prerequisite and use it to skip all of the dependent tests.
