Reminder to all repository users: Please do not add , commit and push any data files to your remote git repositories. The disk space the Git server is limited, it wasn't dimensioned to host anything else than code. Solely your code files need versioning. The data inputs/outputs don't. A good idea is to do "git add" individually on each file you want to commit, to avoid versioning unwanted content.

User email confirmation at sign-up

Gitlab admin can enable email confirmation on sign-up, if you want to confirm all user emails before they are able to sign-in.

In the Admin area under Settings (/admin/application_settings), go to section Sign-in Restrictions and look for Send confirmation email on sign-up option.
