mysql> CREATE USER 'gitlab'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '$password';
2012-10-25 04:13:11 -04:00
# Create the GitLab production database
mysql> CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS `gitlabhq_production` DEFAULT CHARACTER SET `utf8` COLLATE `utf8_unicode_ci`;
# Grant the GitLab user necessary permissopns on the table.
