Hi,

#856606 is filed as a serious bug against gitlab version 8.13.11+dfsg-4
in unstable as upgrading from 8.13.11+dfsg-3 in testing fails because
/etc/gitlab/gitlab-debian.conf is changed in the new version. I think
this should not be considered an RC bug as it will require making
complicated changes in postinst to support a configuration file that was
never part of any stable release. It is much simpler to make this change
manually and I think it is reasonable to expect users who use testing or
unstable to make those changes manually. Such a requirement will make
changes in unstable/testing much harder than required. I fully agree to
support upgrading between versions in stable releases.

This was the change made to /etc/gitlab/gitlab-debian.conf:

-nginx_conf_example=/usr/share/doc/gitlab/nginx.conf.example
-nginx_ssl_conf_example_gz=/usr/share/doc/gitlab/nginx.ssl.conf.example.gz
+nginx_conf_example=/usr/lib/gitlab/templates/nginx.conf.example
+nginx_ssl_conf_example=/usr/lib/gitlab/templates/nginx.ssl.conf.example

I request CTTE to declare this bug as not RC.
