Create the uploads_storage_path directory
resolves https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/release/framework/issues/392
local storage configuration
https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/administration/uploads.html#using-local-storage
we instruct users to set
gitlab_rails['uploads_storage_path'] = "/mnt/storage/"
but this directory is not created by reconfigure.
this is only a problem when it is changed because the default is:
/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails
object storage configuration
Currently, due to https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/47220 we still write to this directory when using object storage. Although in this case you probably would not change it from the default, if you do uploads will not work because the directory will not exist.
