It didn't re-timestamp anything. It just moved the session start time.

The session, which was starting at 6:30 in local time but 7:30
displayed in TS, now starts at 5:30am local time but 6:30 displayed
in TS. So it's showing some pre-day-session bars as day session
now, which is wrong.
I've re-set everything back the way it was originally, and I'll
wait until daylight savings switches over next month, and see what
happens then. Right now it's no problem for me to mentally subtract
1 hour from the displayed time of a bar to get my local time.
