I think it should be something like
If you were using a custom time zone in
config/...
, you can now set the time zone ingitlab.yml
like this:...So that if I am a user who never knew about custom timezones, I can read this paragraph, see I need to take no action, and immediately forget about it again.

I understand that setting the timezone will be nice for some GitLab installations. However, considering that the default (UTC if I understand correctly) is sane, I think this settings change should be presented as an optional step, not a necessity. Manual GitLab updates are daunting enough as it is so I believe we should think twice before telling users that they have to take an extra step.

I'll update the text to suggest that they consider setting a time zone. Additionally this is only listed in the upgrade guide and not the installation guide.
