Upgrade of a GitLab instance
When upgrading a Gitlab instance, strictly follow the defined upgrade path. Consider to snapshot the filesystem if possible after each step.
Additional, after each step wait until all background migrations are completed before performing the next upgrade step.
To find the versions of a specific package in the Debian apt cache use
apt-cache madison gitlab-ce
To upgrade to a specific version use
apt install gitlab-ce=<version>
Definitely observe the version specific upgrade instructions, especially background migrations!
