This directory contains updated zoneinfo.txt, binary versions, and a Makefile which will
automatically fetch new tzdata and compile it.
10 second setup for building new versions of the data:
------------------------------------------------------
0. build and install ICU somewhere.
1. create Makefile.local and point it at your ICU source dir. I use "ICU_SRC=/xsrl/W/icu/source".
2. if icu-config isn't on your PATH, you can set ICU_CONFIG in Makefile.local to the address of your installed icu-config
3. put updated updated metaZones.txt, timezoneTyes.txt amd wondowsZones.txt (also files for older ICU version) under supplemental directory
4. now run:
4a. "make TZDBVER=<version> update" to fetch latest tzdata/code specified by <version> (e.g. 2018b) via FTP, and build it
4b. or just "make TZDBVER=<version> update-mirror" to only fetch via FTP
4c. or just "make TZDBVER=<version> update-icu" to only update the icu4c with any tzdata in your mirror directory
5. add files generated under icunew/<version> and supplemental files to svn
