I will change the indentation to 8 spaces. HT means "horizontal tab", like might be shown with "man ascii". Git uses tabs for indentation. This file is documentation instead of source so clang-format doesn't know about it, but I might as well mention anyway: if you run "make style", then clang-format will give some suggestions around formatting. The configuration for that is not yet perfect so you can take its suggestions with a grain of salt, but they should get you in the right direction.

By leaving it uninitialized, you can help avoid the reader wondering whether there is some code path where the default value is used.

Let's see: *checks with "git grep -e TZ -- t"*. Looks like t0006 tests various aspects of TZ handling pretty well and t1100 includes of test using TZ with commit-tree (good).
