### New versions and upgrading

Since 2011 GitLab is released on the 22nd of every month. Every new release includes an [upgrade guide](doc/update) and new features are detailed in the [Changelog](CHANGELOG).

It is recommended to follow a monthly upgrade schedule. Security releases come out when needed. For more information about the release process see the documentation for [monthly](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/master/doc/release/monthly.md) and [security](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/master/doc/release/security.md) releases.

* Features that will be in the next releases are listed on the [feature request forum](http://feedback.gitlab.com/forums/176466-general) with the status [started](http://feedback.gitlab.com/forums/176466-general/status/796456) and [completed](http://feedback.gitlab.com/forums/176466-general/status/796457).

### Run in production mode

The Installation guide contains instructions on how to download an init script and run it automatically on boot. You can also start the init script manually:

    sudo service gitlab start

or by directly calling the script

     sudo /etc/init.d/gitlab start

Please login with root / 5iveL!fe

### Run in development mode

Consider setting up the development environment with [the cookbook](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cookbook-gitlab/blob/master/README.md#installation).

Copy the example development unicorn configuration file

    cp config/unicorn.rb.example.development config/unicorn.rb

Start it with [Foreman](https://github.com/ddollar/foreman)

    bundle exec foreman start -p 3000

or start each component separately

    bundle exec rails s
    bin/background_jobs start

And surf to [localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000/) and login with root / 5iveL!fe

### Run the tests
