### New versions
Since 2011 a minor or major version of GitLab is released on the 22nd of every month. Patch and security releases come out when needed. New features are detailed on the [blog](https://www.gitlab.com/blog/) and in the [changelog](CHANGELOG). For more information about the release process see the release [documentation](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/tree/master/doc/release). Features that will likely be in the next releases can be found on the [feature request forum](http://feedback.gitlab.com/forums/176466-general) with the status [started](http://feedback.gitlab.com/forums/176466-general/status/796456) and [completed](http://feedback.gitlab.com/forums/176466-general/status/796457).
### Upgrading
For updating the the Omnibus installation please see the [update documentation](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/omnibus-gitlab/blob/master/doc/update.md). For manual installations there is an [upgrader script](doc/update/upgrader.md) and there are [upgrade guides](doc/update).
### Run in production mode
The Installation guide contains instructions on how to download an init script and run it automatically on boot. You can also start the init script manually:
sudo service gitlab start
or by directly calling the script

### Install a development environment
We recommend setting up your development environment with [the cookbook](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cookbook-gitlab/blob/master/README.md#installation).
If you do not use the cookbook you might need to copy the example development unicorn configuration file
cp config/unicorn.rb.example.development config/unicorn.rb
### Run in development mode
Start it with [Foreman](https://github.com/ddollar/foreman)
bundle exec foreman start -p 3000
or start each component separately
bundle exec rails s
bin/background_jobs start
And surf to [localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000/) and login with root / 5iveL!fe
### Run the tests

bundle exec rake test
* [RSpec](http://rspec.info/) unit and functional tests
