 **Merge Requests**: Merge Request is the title of a project participant's request to merge a particular branch with another branch. The changes made to a project can be discussed and improved with other participants until they meet the project's quality standards and are then merged by a project administrator.
 ==== Share ====
+You can share projects with respective colleagues (use the "private" option) or the online community in general (use the "public" option).
+If you set a project on "public" it is possible that it can be cloned without login in GitLab. It is recommended that you group public projects so that they are not dependent on personal GitLab IDs. If a project is to be publicly visible, the group to which the project belongs must also be made publicly visible.
+For public projects, the following information is publicly visible (generally accessible):
+For each commit, the name and email address as stored in the Git configuration.
+For GitLab, the GitLab username as defined in the User Settings section of the Account section. The username is visible in the path for personal projects.
+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.
+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.
 ==== Groups ====
+For projects that logically belong together, the use of GitLab groups is recommended. There is no limit to the number of projects within a GitLab group. A group also has the advantage that rights management is usually easier and clearer. In addition, the role of a user in a group is inherited by all projects in the group.
