Hi there,

I'm currently busy with writing my own software to back-up a lot of stuff on my server and upload it to a WebDAV server. I would like to backup my repositories from my GitLab server as well. But I'm not sure what location I should use. Since /var/opt/gitlab/git-data only contains bare repo's. I am not sure if I should back those up, probably not.

I am wondering if someone could help me with this.

Thanks a lot.
