What changed
gitlab:import:reposexamples withgitlab:import_export:import.docker run,docker exec, and stopped or running Compose services.Why
GitLab removed bare repository importing and the
gitlab:import:reposRake task in 16.0. The existing README instructions therefore fail on current docker-gitlab releases.The supported replacement imports a project export archive created by a compatible GitLab instance.
Impact
Administrators following the README get a working command and the required parameters instead of invoking a task that no longer exists.
Validation
git diff --checkgitlab:import:reposno longer appears inREADME.mdgitlab:import_export:importFixes #3040
