Mapping from local time to UTC may be ambiguous, so mapping from local
time to time zone offset may be ambiguous as well.
The extreme case is 1892-07-04 that happened twice in Pacific/Apia due
to offset change by 24 hours to another side of International Date Line.
Due to the opposite transition there was no 2011-12-30 in this time zone.
Usual case is local time change due to daylight saving time. Notice that
2nd and 4th lines in the results table have the same input, but time
offset differs by 1 hour in the output while local time is the same:
#+header: :var tz="Europe/Berlin"
#+header: :var t0='(:year 2023 :month 10 :day 29 :hour 2 :minute 30
:second 0)
#+header: :var hours='(1 2 3 2)
#+begin_src elisp
(mapcar
(lambda (h)
(let ((dt (apply #'make-decoded-time :zone tz :dst -1 t0)))
(setf (decoded-time-hour dt) h)
(list dt
(format-time-string "%F %a %T @%z" (encode-time dt) tz))))
hours)
#+end_src
#+RESULTS:
