GitLab Workhorse

GitLab Workhorse is a smart reverse proxy for GitLab. It handles "large" HTTP requests such as file downloads, file uploads, Git push/pull and Git archive downloads.

Workhorse itself is not a feature, but there are several features in GitLab that would not work efficiently without Workhorse.

Canonical source

The canonical source for Workhorse is gitlab-org/gitlab/workhorse. Prior to https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/4826, it was gitlab-org/gitlab-workhorse, but that repository is no longer used for development.

Documentation

Workhorse documentation is available in the doc folder of this repository.
