# Namespaces **(FREE SELF)**
|
|
|
|
This Rake task enables [namespaces](../user/group/index.md#namespaces) for projects.
|
|
|
|
## Enable usernames and namespaces for user projects
|
|
|
|
This command enables the namespaces feature introduced in GitLab 4.0. It moves every project in its namespace folder.
|
|
|
|
The **repository location changes as part of this task**, so you must **update all your Git URLs** to
|
|
point to the new location.
|
|
|
|
To change your username:
|
|
|
|
1. In the top-right corner, select your avatar.
|
|
1. Select **Edit profile**.
|
|
1. In the left sidebar, select **Account**.
|
|
1. In the **Change username** section, type the new username.
|
|
1. Select **Update username**.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
- Old path: `git@example.org:myrepo.git`.
|
|
- New path: `git@example.org:username/myrepo.git` or `git@example.org:groupname/myrepo.git`.
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
bundle exec rake gitlab:enable_namespaces RAILS_ENV=production
|
|
```
