# Repository storages
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
GitLab allows you to define repository storage paths to enable distribution of
|
||
|
|
storage load between several mount points.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## For installations from source
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Add your repository storage paths in your `gitlab.yml` under repositories -> storages, using key -> value pairs.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
>**Notes:**
|
||
|
|
- You must have at least one storage path called `default`.
|
||
|
|
- In order for backups to work correctly the storage path must **not** be a
|
||
|
|
mount point and the GitLab user should have correct permissions for the parent
|
||
|
|
directory of the path.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## For omnibus installations
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Follow the instructions at https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/omnibus-gitlab/blob/master/doc/settings/configuration.md#storing-git-data-in-an-alternative-directory
