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 and in the changelog. For more information about the release process see the release documentation. Features that will likely be in the next releases can be found on the feature request forum with the status started and completed.
For updating the the Omnibus installation please see the update documentation. For manual installations there is an upgrader script and there are upgrade guides.
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:
sudo /etc/init.d/gitlab start
Please login with root / 5iveL!fe.
We recommend setting up your development environment with the cookbook. 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
Start it with 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 and login with root / 5iveL!fe.
