sudo -u git -H git checkout 5-1-stable

3. Update gitlab-shell

cd /home/git/gitlab-shell
sudo -u git -H git fetch
sudo -u git -H git checkout v1.3.0
# replace your old config with the new one
sudo -u git -H mv config.yml config.yml.old
sudo -u git -H cp config.yml.example config.yml

sudo -u git -H vi config.yml

# Example of success output
# Check GitLab API access: OK
# Check directories and files:
#         /home/git/repositories: OK
#         /home/git/.ssh/authorized_keys: OK


# Now check gitlab instance
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:check RAILS_ENV=production
