I'm not sure what "adjusted accordingly" in this fragment from info date
means:
When a relative item causes the resulting date to cross a boundary
where the clocks were adjusted, typically for daylight-saving time,
the resulting date and time are adjusted accordingly.
But having 'date +%y%m%d -d yesterday' called just after midnight on
march 28 and 29, I've got the same date (040327) due to daylight saving
time shift.
Shouldn't this be considered a bug?
