    <p>I didn't spot the bug report 839702 before opening this one:<br>
    </p>
    <p><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=839702">https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=839702</a></p>
    <p>Looking closer to the security issue mentioned in 839702, a fix
      came out recently and the configuration suggested previously
      should be dropped.</p>
    <p>A log-rotate file is present in the gitlab repo here:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/support/logrotate/gitlab">https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/support/logrotate/gitlab</a><br>
      <br>
      That being said, the current user use by gitlab in debian package
      is gitlab. So I think "su git git" should be replace by "su gitlab
      gitlab". <br>
