User profile customization via README.md in special repo
I would be nice when a user can customize their profile via a special repos README.md
. This feature landed in GitHub some days ago.
This feature would be nice to have, because people can customize their profiles.
See my GitHub profile as example
Solution
Create a repo which has the same name as the username. Display the content of the README.md
below user data on the profile page https://<gitlabinstance>/<username>
Implementation
This feature was delivered in 14.5. Documentation is here: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/profile/#add-details-to-your-profile-with-a-readme
