I am stuck with a very complex problem of gilab.
Suddenly, I am not being able to push or clone from any of my repository.
I am getting the below error:

The place I work for has a super large GitLab repo that I don’t need to pull. I only need a specific directory to be able to work in, and push commits to the repo.

I use gitlab as a version control system. I initially configured the Personal Access Tokens (PATs) and every PAT comes with an expiry. My PAT recently got expired.

i’m having a folder project containing three sub-folders for config, backend and frontend that need to be pushed into gitlab with the same structure, i succesfully pushed the project but all i’m getting is empty folders in gitlab using theese commands:

I have a CI/CD with multiple projects (some are (really) big (Go)) and want to reduce bandwith consumption / CPU usage on the server and so I need a cache for git objects on my runner.

In gitlab we have a dev branch and a main branch. All the dev work is done on separate independent individual branches and when peer review is done these branches are merged to dev branch. Every weekend we have a Production release cycle and during that time the dev branch is merged with Main using a MR. When I raise MR to merge dev branch to Main I get a message saying the source branch is x commits behind the target branch. Here the source branch is dev and target is Main. I am confused how can dev branch be x commits behind the Main branch since it can either be Ahead (because of new commits) or same as Main branch.

After Gitlab push I see 100 Additions and 30 Deletions, and 8 changed files.
While I made only changes to 8 files, not deleted/added any file.

I am using my friend’s system to get access my git repo, clone and push new code.
But it shows that
https://github.com/MY_USERNAME/REPO denided access to MY_FRIENDS_USERNAME.

I have seen several posts in StackOverflow related to this issue, but yet I cannot find a solution:
