Project repository storage moves API (FREE SELF)
Introduced in GitLab 13.0.
Project repositories including wiki and design repositories can be moved between storages. This can be useful when migrating to Gitaly Cluster, for example.
As project repository storage moves are processed, they transition through different states. Values
of state
are:
initial
: The record has been created but the background job has not yet been scheduled.scheduled
: The background job has been scheduled.started
: The project repositories are being copied to the destination storage.replicated
: The project has been moved.failed
: The project repositories failed to copy or the checksums did not match.finished
: The project has been moved and the repositories on the source storage have been deleted.cleanup failed
: The project has been moved but the repositories on the source storage could not be deleted.
To ensure data integrity, projects are put in a temporary read-only state for the
duration of the move. During this time, users receive a The repository is temporarily read-only. Please try again later.
message if they try to push new commits.
This API requires you to authenticate yourself as an administrator.

Schedule a repository storage move for a project
- Introduced in GitLab 13.1.
- Introduced in GitLab 13.3, original repository is automatically removed after successful move and integrity check.
WARNING: Before GitLab 13.3, a repository move worked more like a repository copy as the original repository was not deleted from the original storage disk location and had to be manually cleaned up.

Parameters:
Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
---|---|---|---|
project_id |
integer | yes | ID of the project |
destination_storage_name |
