Handling large files

Git is not very efficient at managing large binary files (> few MBs) which have the additional drawback of not being “differentiable”. To manage such files, such as audio, video, graphics files or virtual machines images, GitLab supports “git lfs”.

Important

On our service, the filesize for Git LFS is limited to 2 GB.

GitLab static web pages

The CC-IN2P3 GitLab instance provides static web pages, the so-called “GitLab Pages”. Such a page will have the following URL:

https://<user.id>.pages.in2p3.fr/<project-name>/

Advanced pages features

The following features are supported:

• Custom domains: it requires the purchase of a DNS name and proper configuration on your part.

• HTTPS certificates: static or automatic with Letsencrypt.

• Access control: may limit access to only authenticated members of your project (at least Guest).

Additional advanced features may require interaction with our user support.

Attention

GitLab Pages is intended to host static, small and simple web pages. The main usecase is documentation (the Wiki may also be used in that fashion). Any other usecase would probably be best served through more classical webhosting. In that case and if you’re a IN2P3 user or member of a IN2P3 collaboration don’t hesitate to ask our user support.
