Secure Files are not included in backup
A customer (ZD internal link) who is using Project Secure Files has recently found that the contents of /var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/ci_secure_files
is not included in the backup file produced by the gitlab-backup
utility.
This means if the system needed to be restored from backup the contents of uploaded Secure Files would be lost. Which could cause significant problems for projects configured to use them, and block builds.
For reference the backup currently contains the following tarballs of locally stored files:
-rw------- git/git 19045 2023-05-16 05:44 uploads.tar.gz
