When you create a new [project](../project/index.md), creating it based on custom project templates is
|
|
|
|
|
a convenient bootstrap option.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Users can configure a GitLab group that serves as template
|
|
|
|
|
source under a group's **Settings > General > Custom project templates**.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NOTE: **Note:**
|
|
|
|
|
GitLab administrators can
|
|
|
|
|
[set project templates for an entire GitLab instance](../admin_area/custom_project_templates.md).
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Within this section, you can configure the group where all the custom project
|
|
|
|
|
templates are sourced. Every project directly under the group namespace will be
|
|
|
|
|
available to the user if they have access to them. For example, every public
|
2019-03-02 22:35:43 +05:30
|
|
|
project in the group will be available to every logged in user.
|

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
However, private projects will be available only if the user is a member of the project.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NOTE: **Note:**
|

|
|
|
Only direct subgroups can be set as the template source. Projects of nested subgroups of a selected template source cannot be used.

|
|
|
|
|
Repository and database information that are copied over to each new project are
|
|
|
|
|
identical to the data exported with [GitLab's Project Import/Export](../project/settings/import_export.md).

<!-- ## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Include any troubleshooting steps that you can foresee. If you know beforehand what issues
|
|
|
|
|
one might have when setting this up, or when something is changed, or on upgrading, it's
|
|
|
|
|
important to describe those, too. Think of things that may go wrong and include them here.
|
|
|
|
|
This is important to minimize requests for support, and to avoid doc comments with
|
|
|
|
|
questions that you know someone might ask.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Each scenario can be a third-level heading, e.g. `### Getting error message X`.
|
|
|
|
|
If you have none to add when creating a doc, leave this section in place
|
|
|
|
|
but commented out to help encourage others to add to it in the future. -->
