Javascript Date() constructor does not accept TiddlyWiki date format as input, nor empty strings.

Using BobWin.exe 1.6.2r2, Windows 10, latest Firefox 81.0.2.

There are several places in the code where there is a call to (for example) new Date(SomeObject.fields.created)

I'm mostly interested in these 2:

TW5-Bob/ServerRoutes/ServerRoutes/post-push.js

Line 48 in 61bfcd8

    
           bodyData.tiddlers[title].fields.modified = $tw.utils.stringifyDate(new Date(bodyData.tiddlers[title].fields.modified));

TW5-Bob/ServerRoutes/ServerRoutes/post-push.js

Line 49 in 61bfcd8

    
           bodyData.tiddlers[title].fields.created = $tw.utils.stringifyDate(new Date(bodyData.tiddlers[title].fields.created));

These lines return "NaN"

// empty string
$tw.utils.stringifyDate(new Date(""));
==> "NaNNaNNaNNaNNaNNaNNaN"

// TiddlyWiki date
$tw.utils.stringifyDate(new Date("20201016232045362"));
==> "NaNNaNNaNNaNNaNNaNNaN"

This works as intended. All of the tools that I use to work with the api send the dates as stringifyed javascript dates.

Gotcha, thanks.
