-## Complete database variables
-
-The recommended method for specifying your database connection information is
-to set the `DATABASE_URL` environment variable. This variable contains
-connection information (`adapter`, `database`, `username`, `password`, `host`,
-and `port`), but no behavior information (`encoding` or `pool`). If you don't
-want to use `DATABASE_URL`, or want to set database behavior information,
-either:
-
-- Copy the template file, `cp config/database.yml.env config/database.yml`.
-- Set a value for some `GITLAB_DATABASE_XXX` variables.
-
-The list of `GITLAB_DATABASE_XXX` variables that you can set is:
-
-| Variable | Default value | Overridden by `DATABASE_URL`? |
-|-----------------------------|--------------------------------|-------------------------------|
-| `GITLAB_DATABASE_ADAPTER` | `postgresql` | **{check-circle}** Yes |
-| `GITLAB_DATABASE_DATABASE` | `gitlab_#{ENV['RAILS_ENV']` | **{check-circle}** Yes |
-| `GITLAB_DATABASE_ENCODING` | `unicode` | **{dotted-circle}** No |
-| `GITLAB_DATABASE_HOST` | `localhost` | **{check-circle}** Yes |
-| `GITLAB_DATABASE_PASSWORD` | _none_ | **{check-circle}** Yes |
-| `GITLAB_DATABASE_POOL` | `10` | **{dotted-circle}** No |
-| `GITLAB_DATABASE_PORT` | `5432` | **{check-circle}** Yes |
-| `GITLAB_DATABASE_USERNAME` | `root` | **{check-circle}** Yes |
