Fixed a Choco compression bug
This merge request fixes a bug that caused metadata compression techniques not to work correctly with Choco.
GitLab was down and recovered from backup over the weekend of July 12–13rd, 2025.
Your metadata is safe. (That is, users, groups, projects, issues, merge requests and more).
On the other hand, you need to ”git push -f” if your last push was after Thursday, July 10th, at or about 10PM CEST (meaning it was not part of the last backup)
The entire team and the service manager presents their apologies for the outage.
If you are a “guest” user, further action is required. Please follow the steps at https://go.epfl.ch/gitlab2025
