The 17.0 major release is coming on May 16, 2024! This version brings many exciting improvements to GitLab, but also removes some deprecated features. We are introducing three breaking change windows during which we expect breaking changes to be deployed to GitLab.com. You can read more about it on our blogpost. The first breaking change window begins 2024-04-22 09:00UTC and ends 2024-04-24 22:00UTC.
There is a possible bug in the current version we use, as described in https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/50965
Upgrading is not without risk, so testing of the server should be done before merging this to master.
