Update GitLab Server
When you see a new release in the CHANGELOG, you could update the installation by the following instructions.
Download the deb and install with dpkg
. The following example downloads gitlab-ce version 8.6.7
for Ubuntu (trusty).
wget https://packages.gitlab.com/gitlab/gitlab-ce/ubuntu/pool/trusty/main/g/gitlab-ce/gitlab-ce_8.6.7-ce.0_amd64.deb
sudo chown -R git $path-to-gitlab-backup
sudo dpkg -i gitlab-ce_8.6.7-ce.0_amd64.deb
WARNING: Make a FULL BACKUP before upgrading.
