Marcel Amirault 73c6477b7e Changing badges to use parentheses not brackets
Previously, we used brackets to denote the tier badges,
but this made Kramdown, the docs site Markdown renderer,
show many warnings when building the site. This is now
fixed by using parentheses instead of square brackets.

This was caused by [PREMIUM] looking like a link to
Kramdown, which couldn't find a URL there.

Email

You can customize some of the content in emails sent from your GitLab instance.

The logo in the header of some emails can be customized, see the logo customization section.

Custom additional text (PREMIUM ONLY)

Introduced in GitLab Premium 10.7.

The additional text will appear at the bottom of any email and can be used for legal/auditing/compliance reasons.

  1. Go to Admin area > Settings (/admin/application_settings).
  2. Under the Email section, change the Additional text field.
  3. Hit Save for the changes to take effect.

Admin email settings

Custom hostname for private commit emails

Introduced in GitLab 11.5.

This configuration option sets the email hostname for private commit emails. By default it is set to users.noreply.YOUR_CONFIGURED_HOSTNAME.

In order to change this option:

  1. Go to Admin area > Settings (/admin/application_settings).
  2. Under the Email section, change the Custom hostname (for private commit emails) field.
  3. Hit Save for the changes to take effect.

NOTE: Note: Once the hostname gets configured, every private commit email using the previous hostname, will not get recognized by GitLab. This can directly conflict with certain Push rules such as Check whether author is a GitLab user and Check whether committer is the current authenticated user.
