-# From 8.3 to 8.4
-
-Make sure you view this update guide from the tag (version) of GitLab you would
-like to install. In most cases this should be the highest numbered production
-tag (without rc in it). You can select the tag in the version dropdown at the
-top left corner of GitLab (below the menu bar).
-
-If the highest number stable branch is unclear please check the
-[GitLab Blog](https://about.gitlab.com/blog/archives.html) for installation
-guide links by version.
-
-### 1. Stop server
-
- sudo service gitlab stop
-
-### 2. Backup
-
-```bash
-cd /home/git/gitlab
-sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:create RAILS_ENV=production
-```
-
-### 3. Get latest code
-
-```bash
-sudo -u git -H git fetch --all
-sudo -u git -H git checkout -- db/schema.rb # local changes will be restored automatically
-```
-
-For GitLab Community Edition:
-

-
-```bash
-cd /home/git/gitlab-shell
-sudo -u git -H git fetch --all
-sudo -u git -H git checkout v2.6.10
-```
-
-### 5. Update gitlab-workhorse
-
-Install and compile gitlab-workhorse. This requires [Go 1.5](https://golang.org/dl)
-which should already be on your system from GitLab 8.1.
-
-```bash
-cd /home/git/gitlab-workhorse
-sudo -u git -H git fetch --all
-sudo -u git -H git checkout 0.6.2
-sudo -u git -H make
-```
-
-### 6. Install libs, migrations, etc.
-
-```bash
-cd /home/git/gitlab
-
-# MySQL installations (note: the line below states '--without postgres')
-sudo -u git -H bundle install --without postgres development test --deployment
-
-# PostgreSQL installations (note: the line below states '--without mysql')
-sudo -u git -H bundle install --without mysql development test --deployment
-
-# Run database migrations
-sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=production
-
-# Clean up assets and cache
-sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake assets:clean assets:precompile cache:clear RAILS_ENV=production
-
-```
-
-### 7. Update configuration files
-
-#### New configuration options for `gitlab.yml`
-
-There are new configuration options available for [`gitlab.yml`][yaml]. View them with the command below and apply them manually to your current `gitlab.yml`:
-
-```sh
-git diff origin/8-3-stable:config/gitlab.yml.example origin/8-4-stable:config/gitlab.yml.example
-```
-
-#### Init script
-
-We updated the init script for GitLab in order to set a specific PATH for gitlab-workhorse.
-
-```
-cd /home/git/gitlab
-sudo cp lib/support/init.d/gitlab /etc/init.d/gitlab
-```
-
-For Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS:
-
- sudo systemctl daemon-reload
-
-### 8. Start application
-
- sudo service gitlab start
- sudo service nginx restart
-
-### 9. Check application status
-
-Check if GitLab and its environment are configured correctly:
-
- sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:env:info RAILS_ENV=production
-
-To make sure you didn't miss anything run a more thorough check:
-
- sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:check RAILS_ENV=production
-
-If all items are green, then congratulations, the upgrade is complete!
-
-## Things went south? Revert to previous version (8.3)
-
-### 1. Revert the code to the previous version
-
-Follow the [upgrade guide from 8.2 to 8.3](8.2-to-8.3.md), except for the
-database migration (the backup is already migrated to the previous version).
-
-### 2. Restore from the backup
-
-```bash
-cd /home/git/gitlab
-sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:restore RAILS_ENV=production
-```
-
-If you have more than one backup `*.tar` file(s) please add `BACKUP=timestamp_of_backup` to the command above.
