-    sudo -u git -H git clone https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-pages.git
-    cd gitlab-pages
-    sudo -u git -H git checkout v$(</home/git/gitlab/GITLAB_PAGES_VERSION)

 ### Install Gitaly
 
-    # Fetch Gitaly source with Git and compile with Go
-    sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake "gitlab:gitaly:install[/home/git/gitaly,/home/git/repositories]" RAILS_ENV=production
+```sh
+# Fetch Gitaly source with Git and compile with Go
+sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake "gitlab:gitaly:install[/home/git/gitaly,/home/git/repositories]" RAILS_ENV=production
+```
 
 You can specify a different Git repository by providing it as an extra parameter:
 
-    sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake "gitlab:gitaly:install[/home/git/gitaly,/home/git/repositories,https://example.com/gitaly.git]" RAILS_ENV=production
+```sh
+sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake "gitlab:gitaly:install[/home/git/gitaly,/home/git/repositories,https://example.com/gitaly.git]" RAILS_ENV=production
+```
 
 Next, make sure gitaly configured:
 
-    # Restrict Gitaly socket access
-    sudo chmod 0700 /home/git/gitlab/tmp/sockets/private
-    sudo chown git /home/git/gitlab/tmp/sockets/private
+```sh
+# Restrict Gitaly socket access
+sudo chmod 0700 /home/git/gitlab/tmp/sockets/private
+sudo chown git /home/git/gitlab/tmp/sockets/private
 
-    # If you are using non-default settings you need to update config.toml
-    cd /home/git/gitaly
-    sudo -u git -H editor config.toml
+# If you are using non-default settings you need to update config.toml
+cd /home/git/gitaly
+sudo -u git -H editor config.toml
+```

+sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:setup RAILS_ENV=production force=yes
 
-    # When done you see 'Administrator account created:'
+# When done you see 'Administrator account created:'
+```
 
 **Note:** You can set the Administrator/root password and e-mail by supplying them in environmental variables, `GITLAB_ROOT_PASSWORD` and `GITLAB_ROOT_EMAIL` respectively, as seen below. If you don't set the password (and it is set to the default one) please wait with exposing GitLab to the public internet until the installation is done and you've logged into the server the first time. During the first login you'll be forced to change the default password.
 
-    sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:setup RAILS_ENV=production GITLAB_ROOT_PASSWORD=yourpassword GITLAB_ROOT_EMAIL=youremail

+sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:setup RAILS_ENV=production GITLAB_ROOT_PASSWORD=yourpassword GITLAB_ROOT_EMAIL=youremail

 If you'd like to connect to a Redis server on a non-standard port or on a different host, you can configure its connection string via the `config/resque.yml` file.
 
-    # example
-    production:
-      url: redis://redis.example.tld:6379
+```
+# example
+production:
+  url: redis://redis.example.tld:6379
+```
 
 If you want to connect the Redis server via socket, then use the "unix:" URL scheme and the path to the Redis socket file in the `config/resque.yml` file.
 
-    # example
-    production:
-      url: unix:/path/to/redis/socket
+```
+# example
+production:
+  url: unix:/path/to/redis/socket
+```
 
 Also you can use environment variables in the `config/resque.yml` file:
 
-    # example
-    production:
-      url: <%= ENV.fetch('GITLAB_REDIS_URL') %>
+```
+# example

 ### Custom SSH Connection
 
 If you are running SSH on a non-standard port, you must change the GitLab user's SSH config.
 
-    # Add to /home/git/.ssh/config
-    host localhost          # Give your setup a name (here: override localhost)
-        user git            # Your remote git user

+    port 2222           # Your port number
+    hostname 127.0.0.1; # Your server name or IP
+```
 
 You also need to change the corresponding options (e.g. `ssh_user`, `ssh_host`, `admin_uri`) in the `config\gitlab.yml` file.
