This will be necessary when adding gitaly settings. This version doesn't make any functional changes, but allows us to include this breaking change in 9.0 and add the needed extra settings in the future with backwards compatibility

Configuration changes for repository storages
This version introduces a new configuration structure for repository storages. Update your current configuration as follows, replacing with your storages names and paths:
For installations from source
- Update your
gitlab.yml, from
repositories:
storages: # You must have at least a 'default' storage path.
default: /home/git/repositories
nfs: /mnt/nfs/repositories
cephfs: /mnt/cephfs/repositories
to
repositories:
storages: # You must have at least a 'default' storage path.
default:
path: /home/git/repositories
nfs:
path: /mnt/nfs/repositories
cephfs:
path: /mnt/cephfs/repositories
For Omnibus installations
- Upate your
/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb, from
git_data_dirs({
"default" => "/var/opt/gitlab/git-data",
"nfs" => "/mnt/nfs/git-data",
"cephfs" => "/mnt/cephfs/git-data"
})
to
git_data_dirs({
"default" => { "path" => "/var/opt/gitlab/git-data" },
"nfs" => { "path" => "/mnt/nfs/git-data" },
"cephfs" => { "path" => "/mnt/cephfs/git-data" }
})
Git configuration
Configure Git to generate packfile bitmaps (introduced in Git 2.0) on
the GitLab server during git gc.
cd /home/git/gitlab
sudo -u git -H git config --global repack.writeBitmaps true
Nginx configuration
Ensure you're still up-to-date with the latest NGINX configuration changes:
cd /home/git/gitlab
# For HTTPS configurations
git diff origin/8-17-stable:lib/support/nginx/gitlab-ssl origin/9-0-stable:lib/support/nginx/gitlab-ssl
# For HTTP configurations
git diff origin/8-17-stable:lib/support/nginx/gitlab origin/9-0-stable:lib/support/nginx/gitlab
If you are using Strict-Transport-Security in your installation to continue using it you must enable it in your Nginx configuration as GitLab application no longer handles setting it.
If you are using Apache instead of NGINX please see the updated Apache templates. Also note that because Apache does not support upstreams behind Unix sockets you will need to let gitlab-workhorse listen on a TCP port. You can do this via /etc/default/gitlab.
