+# Custom password length limits
+
+If you want to enforce longer user passwords you can create an extra Devise initializer with the following steps:
+
+```bash
+cd /home/git/gitlab
+sudo -u git -H cp config/initializers/devise_password_length.rb.example config/initializers/devise_password_length.rb
+sudo -u git -H editor config/initializers/devise_password_length.rb # inspect and edit the new password length limits
+```
