That's closer, but not correct. I checked some issue notification
emails to be sure.

The time stamps in the PDT portion of any year are now converted
correctly, but the time stamps in the PST (UTC-0800) portion of any
year are now converted to one hour less than the correct value.

I think the XML export from Tigris expresses a timestamp using PDT
(UTC-0700) if the timestamp date is in the PDT portion of the year,
and using PST (UTC-0800) if the timestamp date is in the PST portion
of the year. I guess you assumed they are all in PDT?

I do not know exactly what algorithm the Tigris export uses for "PDT
portion of the year". However, the normal HTML view on Tigris is
(currently) displaying all timestamps as PDT (UTC-0700).

In issue #4594, Bert commented at:
= 15:58 CEST (UTC+0200) (personally confirmed)
= 14:58 BST (UTC+0100)
= 13:58 UTC
= 06:58 PDT (UTC-0700)

=> For a time stamp made today (in the DST portion of the year),
IssueZilla now reports it in PDT in both HTML (labeled as "(+0700)")
and XML views (unlabeled).

=> For a time stamp made in the DST portion of any year, I assume the same.

Julian's comment on issue #1532
<http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.subversion.issues/27552>
= 2015-02-17 16:41:24 GMT (header of notification email from Tigris)
= Tue Feb 17 08:41:24 -0800 2015 (in notification email from Tigris)

=> For a time stamp made in the winter portion of any year, Tigris
currently (in DST) reports one hour greater in HTML (still labeled as
"(+0700)") than in XML (unlabeled).
=> The XML is therefore reporting the time as PST (UTC-0800) and I
would guess the HTML is reporting it as Tigris local time (currently
UTC-0700).
