+By default, Garage runs the lifecycle worker every day at midnight in UTC. Set the
+`use_local_tz` configuration value to `true` if you want Garage to run the
+lifecycle worker at midnight in your local timezone. If you have multiple nodes,
+you should also ensure that each node has the same timezone configuration.
