# Project features
|
|
|
|
When in a Project -> Settings, you will find Features on the bottom of the page that you can toggle.
|
|
|
|
Below you will find a more elaborate explanation of each of these.
|
|
|
|
## Issues
|
|
|
|
Issues is a really powerful, but lightweight issue tracking system.
|
|
|
|
You can make tickets, assign them to people, file them under milestones, order them with labels and have discussion in them.
|
|
|
|
They integrate deeply into GitLab and are easily referenced from anywhere by using `#` and the issue number.
|
|
|
|
## Merge Requests
|
|
|
|
Using a merge request, you can review and discuss code before it is merged in the branch of your code.
|
|
|
|
As with issues, it can be assigned; people, issues, etc. can be referenced; milestones attached.
|
|
|
|
We see it as an integral part of working together on code and couldn't work without it.
|
|
|
|
## Wiki
|
|
|
|
This is a separate system for documentation, built right into GitLab.
|
|
|
|
It is source controlled and is very convenient if you don't want to keep you documentation in your source code, but you do want to keep it in your GitLab project.
|
|
|
|
## Snippets
|
|
|
|
Snippets are little bits of code or text.
|
|
|
|
This is a nice place to put code or text that is used semi-regularly within the project, but does not belong in source control.
|
|
|
|
For example, a specific config file that is used by the team that is only valid for the people that work on the code.
|
|
|
|
## Git LFS
|
|
|
|
>**Note:** Project-specific LFS setting was added on 8.12 and is available only to admins.
|
|
|
|
Git Large File Storage allows you to easily manage large binary files with Git.
|
|
With this setting admins can better control which projects are allowed to use
|
|
LFS.
