-# GitLab Groups
-GitLab groups allow you to group projects into directories and give users access to several projects at once.
-
-When you create a new project in GitLab, the default namespace for the project is the personal namespace associated with your GitLab user.
-In this document we will see how to create groups, put projects in groups and manage who can access the projects in a group.
-
-## Creating groups
-
-You can create a group by going to the 'Groups' tab of the GitLab dashboard and clicking the 'New group' button.
-
-![Click the 'New group' button in the 'Groups' tab](groups/new_group_button.png)
-
-Next, enter the path and name (required) and the optional description and group avatar.
-
-![Fill in the path for your new group](groups/new_group_form.png)
-
-When your group has been created you are presented with the group dashboard feed, which will be empty.
-
-![Group dashboard](groups/group_dashboard.png)
-
-You can use the 'New project' button to add a project to the new group.
-
-## Transferring an existing project into a group
-
-You can transfer an existing project into a group you have at least Master access in from the project settings page.
-The option to transfer a project is only available if you are the Owner of the project.
-First scroll down to the 'Dangerous settings' and click 'Show them to me'.
-Now you can pick any of the groups you have at least Master access in as the new namespace for the group.
-
-![Transfer a project to a new namespace](groups/transfer_project.png)
-
-GitLab administrators can use the admin interface to move any project to any namespace if needed.
-
-## Adding users to a group
-
-One of the benefits of putting multiple projects in one group is that you can give a user to access to all projects in the group with one action.
-
-Suppose we have a group with two projects.
-
-![Group with two projects](groups/group_with_two_projects.png)
-
-On the 'Group Members' page we can now add a new user Barry to the group.
-
-![Add user Barry to the group](groups/add_member_to_group.png)
-
-Now because Barry is a 'Developer' member of the 'Open Source' group, he automatically gets 'Developer' access to all projects in the 'Open Source' group.
-
-![Barry has 'Developer' access to GitLab CI](groups/project_members_via_group.png)
-
-If necessary, you can increase the access level of an individual user for a specific project, by adding them as a Member to the project.
-
-![Barry effectively has 'Master' access to GitLab CI now](groups/override_access_level.png)
-
-## Requesting access to a group
-
-As a group owner you can enable or disable non members to request access to
-your group. Go to the group settings and click on **Allow users to request access**.
-
-As a user, you can request to be a member of a group. Go to the group you'd
-like to be a member of, and click the **Request Access** button on the right
-side of your screen.
-
-![Request access button](groups/request_access_button.png)
-
----
-
-Group owners & masters will be notified of your request and will be able to approve or
-decline it on the members page.
-
-![Manage access requests](groups/access_requests_management.png)
-
----
-
-If you change your mind before your request is approved, just click the
-**Withdraw Access Request** button.
-
-![Withdraw access request button](groups/withdraw_access_request_button.png)
-
-## Managing group memberships via LDAP
-
-In GitLab Enterprise Edition it is possible to manage GitLab group memberships using LDAP groups.
-See [the GitLab Enterprise Edition documentation](http://docs.gitlab.com/ee/integration/ldap.html) for more information.
-
-## Allowing only admins to create groups
-
-By default, any GitLab user can create new groups.
-This ability can be disabled for individual users from the admin panel.
-It is also possible to configure GitLab so that new users default to not being able to create groups:
-
-```
-# For omnibus-gitlab, put the following in /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb
-gitlab_rails['gitlab_default_can_create_group'] = false
-
-# For installations from source, uncomment the 'default_can_create_group'
-# line in /home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml
-```
