# 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. 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. On 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
```
