Learn more about GitLab Release 7.8.4 for GitLab Community Edition (CE) and Enterprise Edition (EE)

Today we release GitLab 7.8.4 CE, EE and GitLab CI 7.8.4.

You might have noticed that 7.8.3 was not announced. It contained a fix for annotated tags without a message which was required for the Gitorious import on GitLab.com.

GitLab 7.8.4 CE contains:

  • Fix for custom issue trackers where issue_tracker_id is being replaced in all links.
  • Fix for duplicate paths and names in namespaces.

Enterprise Edition 7.8.4 contains the fixes from 7.8.4 CE.
