## Notice
5+
Security vulnerabilities CVE-2013-4490 and CVE-2013-4489 have been patched in the latest version of GitLab 5.4.
6+
7+
### 0. Backup
8+
9+
It's useful to make a backup just in case things go south:
10+
(With MySQL, this may require granting "LOCK TABLES" privileges to the GitLab user on the database version)
11+
12+
```bash
13+
cd /home/git/gitlab
14+
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:create RAILS_ENV=production
15+
```
16+
17+
### 1. Stop server
18+
19+
sudo service gitlab stop
20+
21+
### 2. Get latest code
22+
23+
```bash
24+
cd /home/git/gitlab
25+
sudo -u git -H git fetch
26+
sudo -u git -H git checkout 5-4-stable # Latest version of 5-4-stable addresses CVE-2013-4489
27+
```
28+
29+
### 3. Update gitlab-shell
30+
31+
```bash
32+
cd /home/git/gitlab-shell
33+
sudo -u git -H git fetch
34+
sudo -u git -H git checkout v1.7.4 # Addresses CVE-2013-4490
35+
```
36+
37+
### 4. Install libs, migrations, etc.
38+
39+
```bash
40+
cd /home/git/gitlab
41+
42+
# MySQL
43+
sudo -u git -H bundle install --without development test postgres --deployment
44+
45+
#PostgreSQL
46+
sudo -u git -H bundle install --without development test mysql --deployment
47+
48+
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=production
49+
50+
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake assets:precompile RAILS_ENV=production
51+
```
52+
53+
### 5. Update config files
54+
55+
* Make `/home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml` same as https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq/blob/5-4-stable/config/gitlab.yml.example but with your settings.
56+
* Make `/home/git/gitlab/config/puma.rb` same as https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq/blob/5-4-stable/config/puma.rb.example but with your settings.
57+
58+
### 6. Update Init script
59+
60+
```bash
61+
sudo rm /etc/init.d/gitlab
62+
sudo cp lib/support/init.d/gitlab /etc/init.d/gitlab
63+
sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/gitlab
64+
```
65+
66+
### 7. Create uploads directory
67+
68+
```bash
69+
cd /home/git/gitlab
70+
sudo -u git -H mkdir public/uploads
71+
sudo chmod -R u+rwX public/uploads
72+
```
73+
74+
75+
### 8. Start application
76+
77+
sudo service gitlab start
78+
sudo service nginx restart
79+
80+
### 9. Check application status
81+
82+
Check if GitLab and its environment are configured correctly:
83+
84+
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:env:info RAILS_ENV=production
85+
86+
To make sure you didn't miss anything run a more thorough check with:
87+
88+
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:check RAILS_ENV=production
89+
90+
If all items are green, then congratulations upgrade complete!
91+
92+
## Things went south? Revert to previous version (5.3)
93+
94+
### 1. Revert the code to the previous version
95+
Follow the [`upgrade guide from 5.2 to 5.3`](5.2-to-5.3.md), except for the database migration
96+
(The backup is already migrated to the previous version)
97+
98+
### 2. Restore from the backup:
99+
100+
```bash
101+
cd /home/git/gitlab
102+
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:restore RAILS_ENV=production
103+
```
