@nszceta Can you please squash the commits? |

May I ask why --asroot? Also why not use the officially packaged ruby? Is there a limitation?
|
The guide is written from the root user perspective, much like the CentOS guide. I will regenerate the pull request with a squashed commit. Ruby 2.1 is not supported by Gitlab 6.x |
| Create a `git` user for Gitlab: | ||

| userdel git | ||
| useradd --system --shell /sbin/nologin --comment 'GitLab User' --create-home --home-dir /home/git/ git |

Have you tested that setting shell to nologin works? I'm asking because there are quite a few reported issues with the Centos guide.
|
It works as expected. Furthermore I will be installing the latest stable Gitlab release on Centos 6.5 in a few minutes and I will continue to update that guide |
|
Thank you for taking the time to review and comment |

Is there a reason you install postgres 9.1 from AUR and not use 9.3 from the official repos?
|
I created the PostgreSQL 9.1 AUR package because that is the version that I tested to work in the past with Gitlab 6.6 and 6.7 on CentOS 6.5. I have no experience with 9.3 and I did not want to update to something untested. |

Why do you create conf.d since there is sites-available?
|
The squashed PR can be found here: #211 Closing this one. |
|
There is no sites-available on a clean Arch Linux installation from 3/2014 |
Mostly complete guide to installing Gitlab 6.7 on Arch Linux 3/2014
