Some patches have a timezone formatted like ‘-08:00’ instead of ‘-0800’ (e.g. http://lwn.net/Articles/131729/), so git apply would fail to recognize the epoch timestamp of deleted files and would create empty files instead. Teach it to support both formats, and add a test case.

Might be clearer to write
	if (timestamp[m[3].rm_so + 3] != ':')
With or without that change,

Maybe something like this on top?

Subject: apply: handle patches with funny filename and colon in timezone

Some patches have a timezone formatted like '-08:00' instead of '-0800' in their ---/+++ lines (e.g. http://lwn.net/Articles/131729/). Take this into account when searching for the start of the timezone (which is the end of the filename).

This does not actually affect the outcome of patching unless (1) a file being patched has a non-' ' whitespace character (e.g., tab) in its filename, or (2) the patch is whitespace-damaged, so the tab between filename and timestamp has been replaced with spaces.

Neither the patch nor your suggestion makes much sense to me. With the patch, the regexp is now

    ^(1969-12-31|1970-01-01) <time>(\.0+)? ([-+][0-2][0-9]):?([0-5][0-9])

so $3 is always 3 letters long (i.e. hour with sign), no? IOW, zoneoffset is never divided by 100 by the original patch.

What am I missing?

Well, I was missing that without ':' strtol() goes through to parse $3$4 as a single integer, and the division was done to discard the minute part and parse it again.

Calling strtol() twice only because some unusual input may have ':' there feels ugly, but now I understand why the patch is written that way, at least.
