Allow setting timezone via configuration parameter about docker HOT 4 CLOSED

It is also possible to override the docker container timezone by appending the following volumes:
-v /etc/timezone:/etc/timezone -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime

from docker.

Found now an alternative way to set the timezone via

docker run ... -e JAVA_OPTS=-Duser.timezone=UTC

But a configuration solution as in Docker Gitlab would be nice and maybe more intuitive. What do you think about that?

Nice to know: As timezone you can set also e.g. Europe/London instead of UTC

Thanks @subesokun I was wondering about this and your solution works. Wonder if there's a nicer way. What does the configuration solution for Docker Gitlab look like?
