bundle exec rake gitlab:gitolite:update_keys

Rebuild each project at gitolite config

This makes sure that all projects are present in gitolite and can be accessed.

bundle exec rake gitlab:gitolite:update_repos

Import bare repositories into GitLab project instance

Notes:

• project owner will be a first admin
• existing projects will be skipped

How to use:

1. copy your bare repos under git base_path (see config/gitlab.yml git_host -> base_path)
2. run the command below

bundle exec rake gitlab:import:repos RAILS_ENV=production

Example output:

Processing abcd.git
 * Created abcd (abcd.git)
