Summary

The way DateTime works with epochs is weird, I goofed this by having my server/viewer timezone the same and not noticing.

Also fix an issue where you do ?epoch=... and then manually fiddle with the control: the control should win.

Test Plan
  • Set viewer and server timezone to different vlaues.
  • Created a countdown using ?epoch=....
  • Created a countdown using ?epoch=... and fiddling with date controls.
  • Created and edited a countdown using date/time control.
  • Poked around Calendar to make sure I didn't ruin anything this time (browsed, created event, edited event).

Your viewer is gmt?

This revision was automatically updated to reflect the committed changes.

For testing this, my viewer was EST and my server was PDT (I think?).

For the original bug on C144, the server (secure.phabricator.com) is UTC/GMT, and my viewer is PDT.
