# repeatedTimePolicy

What to do when there are multiple recurrences occurring at the same
time of the day but in different time zones due to a daylight saving
transition.

```
var repeatedTimePolicy: Calendar.RepeatedTimePolicy
```

## Discussion

For example, an event with daily recurrence rule that starts at 1 am
on November 2 in PDT will repeat on:

- 2024-11-02 01:00 PDT (08:00 UTC)
- 2024-11-03 01:00 PDT (08:00 UTC), if `repeatedTimePolicy = .first`
  (Time zone switches from PST to PDT - clock jumps back one hour at
  02:00 PDT)
- 2024-11-03 01:00 PST (09:00 UTC), if `repeatedTimePolicy = .last`
- 2024-11-04 01:00 PST (09:00 UTC)

Due to the time zone switch on November 3, there are different times
when the event might repeat.

Default value is `.first`
