Projects API
Project visibility level
Project in GitLab can be either private, internal or public.
This is determined by the visibility
field in the project.
Values for the project visibility level are:
-
private
: Project access must be granted explicitly for each user. -
internal
: The project can be cloned by any logged in user. -
public
: The project can be cloned without any authentication.
Project merge method
There are currently three options for merge_method
to choose from:
-
merge
: A merge commit is created for every merge, and merging is allowed as long as there are no conflicts. -
rebase_merge
: A merge commit is created for every merge, but merging is only allowed if fast-forward merge is possible. This way you could make sure that if this merge request would build, after merging to target branch it would also build. -
ff
: No merge commits are created and all merges are fast-forwarded, which means that merging is only allowed if the branch could be fast-forwarded.
