Automated GitLab Backup for all your repositories.

Q: What is a GitLab Backup Service

A GitLab backup service is a solution that allows you to create backups of your repositories and other data stored on GitLab. These backups can be used to ensure that you have a copy of your code, merge request, issues (...) in case something happens to the original repository, such as data loss or corruption.

Q: What GitLab data can be backed up?

You can back up all your GitLab repositories, but also all your metadata which includes issues, merge requests, snippets, commits and all available metadata.
