安装好gitlab后，要将仓库(repositories)放在一个大硬盘上,在ubuntu服务器上安装的默认位置为 /var/opt/gitlab/git-data/ 目录，需要修改仓库对应的目录

操作步骤：

1：新建新仓库目录

mkdir -p /mnt/application/gitlab/git-data

2：修改配置文件 sudo vi /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb
搜索：git_data_dir 修改成：git_data_dir “新目录”
如：

git_data_dir "/mnt/application/gitlab/git-data"

保存
3：重新生成gitlab

sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure

生成不报错，而且在新建仓库目录可以看到从下的目录，即修改成功。

默认情况下，gitlab用qq邮箱注册是发送不出确认邮件的。

下面说说gitlab配置腾讯企业邮箱

# vim /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb
gitlab_rails['smtp_enable'] = true
gitlab_rails['smtp_address'] = "smtp.exmail.qq.com"
gitlab_rails['smtp_port'] = 465
gitlab_rails['smtp_user_name'] = "support@ttlsa.com"
gitlab_rails['smtp_password'] = "www.ttlsa.com"
gitlab_rails['smtp_domain'] = "ttlsa.com"
gitlab_rails['smtp_authentication'] = "login"
gitlab_rails['smtp_enable_starttls_auto'] = true
gitlab_rails['smtp_tls'] = true
gitlab_rails['gitlab_email_from'] = "support@ttlsa.com"

163邮箱

 gitlab_rails['smtp_enable'] = true
 gitlab_rails['smtp_address'] = "smtp.163.com"
 gitlab_rails['smtp_port'] = 25
 gitlab_rails['smtp_user_name'] = "sunxintao@163.com"
 gitlab_rails['smtp_password'] = "4578101"
 gitlab_rails['smtp_domain'] = "163.com"
 gitlab_rails['smtp_authentication'] = "login"
 gitlab_rails['smtp_enable_starttls_auto'] = true
 gitlab_rails['smtp_tls'] = false

重新加载配置

sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure

发现目前qq邮箱已经不管用了，建议使用163邮箱
