introduced a new naming scheme for backups, but the code which
cleans up old backups wasn't updated accordingly. In order to
maintain backward compatibility, we need to account for 3 naming
schemes.
Colorize is a gem licensed under the GPLv2, so we can’t use it in GitLab without relicensing GitLab under the terms of the GPL. Rainbow is licensed under the MIT license and does the exact same thing as Colorize, so Rainbow was added in place of Colorize.
The syntax is slightly different for Rainbow vs. Colorize, and was updated in accordance.
The gem is still a dependency of Spinach, so it’s included in the development/test environments, but won’t be packaged with the actual product, and therefore doesn’t require we relicense the product.
An attempt at relicensing Colorize was made, but didn’t succeed as the library owner never responded.

- Offloads uploading to GitLab Workhorse
- Use /authorize request for fast uploading
- Added backup recipes for artifacts
- Support download acceleration using X-Sendfile
During the backup we create an intermediate copy of two directories:
builds and uploads. Instead of creating many small files with 'cp
-r', we now use tar (and fast gzip) to create single intermediate
files. This saves on disk IO and disk space while creating a backup.
This adds support for AWS S3 SSE with S3 managed keys, this means the
data is encrypted at rest and the encryption is handled transparently to
the end user as well as in the AWS Console. This is optional and not
required to make S3 uploads work.
This commit moves the note folder from
/public/uploads/note
to
/uploads/note
and changes the uploader accordingly.
Now it's no longer possible to avoid the access control by modifing the url.
The Avatar upload has been refactored to use an own uploader as well
to cleanly seperate the two upload types.
Previous to this commit, backups were tied to the git revision (SHA1) of
the app at the time the backup:create command was invoked. If the SHA1
at the time of restore was different, the script would refuse to restore
the backup. This commit loosens this tie so that the backup script only
complains if the value of the Gitlab::VERSION constant is different
between the time of backup and the time of restore.
