If you change your GitLab username, GitLab automatically adjusts web addresses and repository URLs for personal projects. For projects that belong to a group, nothing changes because there is no username in the URLs concerned. For more details on changing your GitLab username, see the GitLab documentation. | If you change your GitLab username, GitLab automatically adjusts web addresses and repository URLs for personal projects.

+ | Since Git is designed for versioning of text files (source code and other files in text format), Git repositories should remain relatively small (in the two-digit MB range). | ||
+ | |||
+ | For sharing binary formats such as image archives, Microsoft Office files (.doc, .docx, .xls, .xlsx etc.), LibreOffice / OpenOffice files (.odt, .ods etc.) or very dynamic data please use the Sync & Share Service. | ||

In addition, the role of a user in a group is inherited by all projects in the group. | For projects that logically belong together, the use of GitLab groups is recommended.
