+# From 7.0 to 7.1
+
+### 0. Backup
+
+```bash
+cd /home/git/gitlab
+sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:create RAILS_ENV=production
+```
+
+### 1. Stop server
+
+```bash
+sudo service gitlab stop
+```
+
+### 2. Update Ruby
+
+If you are still using Ruby 1.9.3 or below, you will need to update Ruby.
+You can check which version you are running with `ruby -v`.
+
+If you are you running Ruby 2.0.x, you do not need to upgrade ruby, but can consider doing so for performance reasons.
+
+If you are running Ruby 2.1.1 consider upgrading to 2.1.2, because of the high memory usage of Ruby 2.1.1.
+
+Install, update dependencies:
+
+```bash
+sudo apt-get install build-essential zlib1g-dev libyaml-dev libssl-dev libgdbm-dev libreadline-dev libncurses5-dev libffi-dev curl
+```
+
+Download and compile Ruby:
+
+```bash
+mkdir /tmp/ruby && cd /tmp/ruby
+curl --progress ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/2.1/ruby-2.1.2.tar.gz | tar xz
+cd ruby-2.1.2
+./configure --disable-install-rdoc
+make
+sudo make install
+```
+
+Install Bundler:
+
+```bash
+sudo gem install bundler --no-ri --no-rdoc
+```
+
+### 3. Get latest code
+
+```bash
+cd /home/git/gitlab
+sudo -u git -H git fetch --all
+```
+
+For Gitlab Community Edition:
+
+```bash
+sudo -u git -H git checkout 7-1-stable
+```
+
+OR
+
+For GitLab Enterprise Edition:
+
+```bash
+sudo -u git -H git checkout 7-1-stable-ee
+```
+
+### 4. Update gitlab-shell (and its config)
+
+```bash
+cd /home/git/gitlab-shell
+sudo -u git -H git fetch
+sudo -u git -H git checkout v1.9.6
+```
+
+### 5. Install libs, migrations, etc.
+
+```bash
+cd /home/git/gitlab
+
+# MySQL installations (note: the line below states '--without ... postgres')
+sudo -u git -H bundle install --without development test postgres --deployment
+
+# PostgreSQL installations (note: the line below states '--without ... mysql')
+sudo -u git -H bundle install --without development test mysql --deployment
+
+# Run database migrations
+sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=production
+
+# Clean up assets and cache
+sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake assets:clean assets:precompile cache:clear RAILS_ENV=production
+
+# Update init.d script
+sudo cp lib/support/init.d/gitlab /etc/init.d/gitlab
+sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/gitlab
+```
+
+### 6. Update config files
+
+#### New configuration options for gitlab.yml
+
+There are new configuration options available for gitlab.yml. View them with the command below and apply them to your current gitlab.yml if desired.
+
+```
+git diff 7-0-stable:config/gitlab.yml.example 7-1-stable:config/gitlab.yml.example
+```
+
+### 7. Start application
+
+    sudo service gitlab start
+    sudo service nginx restart
+
+### 8. Check application status
+
+Check if GitLab and its environment are configured correctly:
+
+    sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:env:info RAILS_ENV=production
+
+To make sure you didn't miss anything run a more thorough check with:
+
+    sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:check RAILS_ENV=production
+
+If all items are green, then congratulations upgrade is complete!
+
+## Things went south? Revert to previous version (7.0)
+
+### 1. Revert the code to the previous version
+Follow the [`upgrade guide from 6.9 to 7.0`](6.9-to-7.0.md), except for the database migration 
+(The backup is already migrated to the previous version)
+
+### 2. Restore from the backup:
+
+```bash
+cd /home/git/gitlab
+sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:restore RAILS_ENV=production
+```
+If you have more than one backup *.tar file(s) please add `BACKUP=timestamp_of_backup` to the command above.
