Hmph. An interesting approach, but the implementation is a bit too
messy.

Shouldn't this be file-scope static?
Let BSS take care of initializing a variable to 0/NULL; drop " = 0"
at the end.

Style:
strbuf_addstr(timebuf, show_date(time, tz, DATE_MODE(HUMAN)));

It is a shame that you introduced a nicely reusable get_time()
mechanism to let external callers of show_date() specify what time
to format, instead of the returned timestamp of gettimeofday(),
but limited its usefulness to only testing "human" format output.
If somebody wants to extend "test-tool date" for other formats, they
also have to add a similar "show_date_XXX" hack for their format.
How about doing it slightly differently? E.g.
- Get rid of show_date_human().
- Keep get_time(), but have it pay attention to GIT_TEST_TIMESTAMP
environment variable, and when it is set, use that as if it is
the returned value from gettimeofday().
- If there are gettimeofday() calls in date.c this patch did not
touch (because they were not part of the "human-format"
codepath), adjust them to use get_time() instead.
- Have "test-tool date" excersize show_date() directly.
