Cannot set the repos_path to point to a network disk
Created by: rajeshr264
Summary: I get a Gitlab error when I changed the default repos_path=/home/git/repositories path to a network directory repos_path=/network1/storage/repository in gitlab.yml.
Steps to reproduce: I am using Gitlab 6.5.1. I just change default repos path value to a network directory in gitlab.yml only.
Expected behavior: The machine that I am running Gitlab on has limited disk space. I would like save the repositories on a network drive.
Observed behavior: I made the change to repos_path in gitlab.yml, saved the file and restarted all the services (mysqld,redis, nginx,gitlab). I then created a new account and created a new project. When I clicked on the "Create Project" button, I got an error saying that Gitlab can't save the project.
