2.9 to 3.0 Upgrade Diagnostic Command Issue

Created by: ZKjellberg

Working to upgrade a GitLab instance by following the Upgrade Guide for 2.9-3.0

For the following lines:

# Check APP Status
bundle exec rake gitlab:app:status RAILS_ENV=production

I encounter an issue where it prompts me to enter git@localhost's password. (Which does not exist.)

I discovered this because the original GitLab installation instructions uses the command below to run as the user gitlab instead of the current user. Section 6. GitLab - Check application status sudo -u gitlab bundle exec rake gitlab:app:status RAILS_ENV=production

I suggest updating the From-2.9-to-3.0 guide to use the historical command to prevent this issue.
