Hi, I work in a company and they only update GitLab with the official
package. How can I help update the Debian package and make it stable?
Are there any guidelines for how I can do this?
We need help with testing the package and also keeping it updated.
For example the latest version we are working on gitlab 17.0.9, we are
not able to compile css files with tailwind
https://wiki.debian.org/gitlab/fasttrack-staging any help is welcome
(from others here too)
with 17.0.9, they changed how they build css again and our fragile hack
with symlinks broke. Basically yarn wants to be able to remove
node_modules directory but gitlab user can't remove
/usr/share/gitlab/node_modules since that is a symlink to
/var/lib/gitlab/node_modules which gitlab user has full access. This
fragile hack of adding a symlink was working before gitlab 17.0.9, but
this broke now. Note sure how to move forward, any ideas welcome.
https://wiki.debian.org/gitlab/fasttrack-staging has the debs if you
want to try
You can also join #debian-gitlab on irc.oftc.net to meet the team and
help out.
