Subject: [PATCH 2/2] org-parse-time-string: Describe time stamp matching behavior
Date: Fri, 28 Dec 2018 16:42:50 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181228214250.800-2-kyle@kyleam.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20181228213627.387-1-kyle@kyleam.com>

* lisp/org-macs.el (org-parse-time-string): Document matching of
YYYY-MM-DD substring.

org-clock-special-range used to pass in <-50001-11-30 Tue 00:00> with
the expectation that the year would be parsed as -50001, not 0001.
Mention this YYYY-MM-DD format assumption in the docstring to help
avoid such cases.

+Throw an error if S does not contain a valid Org time string.
+Note that the first match for YYYY-MM-DD will be used (e.g.,

 This should be a lot faster than the `parse-time-string'."
