[PATCH 2/2] apply: remove epoch date from regex

From
René Scharfe <l.s.r@web.de>
Date
Aug 25, 2017, 19:06 UTC
Message-ID
<5dd40b51-ac5b-6885-b7b0-f2a33045c386@web.de>
In-Reply-To
<205339f5-bad8-62a3-8ccc-d3b0dd1d6736@web.de>

We check the date of epoch timestamp candidates already with starts_with(). Move beyond that part using skip_prefix() instead of checking it again using a regular expression. Also group the minutes part, so that we can access them using a substring match instead of using a magic number.
