Universal update guide for patch versions
Make sure you view this upgrade guide from the master branch for the most up to date instructions.
For example from 7.14.0 to 7.14.3, also see the semantic versioning specification.
0. Backup
It's useful to make a backup just in case things go south: (With MySQL, this may require granting "LOCK TABLES" privileges to the GitLab user on the database version)
cd /home/git/gitlab
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:create RAILS_ENV=production
1. Stop server
sudo service gitlab stop
2. Get latest code for the stable branch
In the commands below, replace LATEST_TAG with the latest GitLab tag you want
to update to, for example v8.0.3. Use git tag -l 'v*.[0-9]' --sort='v:refname'
to see a list of all tags. Make sure to update patch versions only (check your
current version with cat VERSION).
cd /home/git/gitlab
sudo -u git -H git fetch --all
sudo -u git -H git checkout -- Gemfile.lock db/schema.rb
sudo -u git -H git checkout LATEST_TAG -b LATEST_TAG
3. Update gitlab-shell to the corresponding version
cd /home/git/gitlab-shell
sudo -u git -H git fetch
sudo -u git -H git checkout v`cat /home/git/gitlab/GITLAB_SHELL_VERSION` -b v`cat /home/git/gitlab/GITLAB_SHELL_VERSION`
4. Update gitlab-workhorse to the corresponding version
cd /home/git/gitlab
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake "gitlab:workhorse:install[/home/git/gitlab-workhorse]" RAILS_ENV=production
5. Install libs, migrations, etc.
cd /home/git/gitlab
# PostgreSQL
sudo -u git -H bundle install --without development test mysql --deployment
# MySQL
sudo -u git -H bundle install --without development test postgres --deployment
# Optional: clean up old gems
sudo -u git -H bundle clean
# 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
6. Start application
sudo service gitlab start
sudo service nginx restart
7. 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 complete!
