# Manage projects **(FREE)**
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
Most work in GitLab is done in a [project](../../user/project/index.md). Files and
code are saved in projects, and most features are in the scope of projects.

## Create a new project with Git push
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/issues/26388) in GitLab 10.5.
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
Use `git push` to push a local project repository to GitLab. After you push a repository,
GitLab creates your project in your chosen namespace.
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
You cannot use `git push` to create projects with project paths that:
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
- Have previously been used.
- Have been [renamed](settings/index.md#renaming-a-repository).
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
Previously used project paths have a redirect. The redirect causes push attempts to redirect requests
to the renamed project location, instead of creating a new project. To create a new project for a previously
used or renamed project, use the [UI](#create-a-project) or the [Projects API](../../api/projects.md#create-project).
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
Prerequisites:
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30

[added to your GitLab account](../../ssh/index.md#add-an-ssh-key-to-your-gitlab-account).
- You must have permission to add new projects to a namespace. To check if you have permission:
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
2022-05-07 20:08:51 +05:30
1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Projects**.

## Use a project as a Go package
Prerequisites:
- Contact your administrator to enable the [GitLab Go Proxy](../packages/go_proxy/index.md).
2022-03-02 08:16:31 +05:30
- To use a private project in a subgroup as a Go package, you must [authenticate Go requests](#authenticate-go-requests-to-private-projects). Go requests that are not authenticated cause
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
`go get` to fail. You don't need to authenticate Go requests for projects that are not in subgroups.
To use a project as a Go package, use the `go get` and `godoc.org` discovery requests. You can use the meta tags:
- [`go-import`](https://pkg.go.dev/cmd/go#hdr-Remote_import_paths)
- [`go-source`](https://github.com/golang/gddo/wiki/Source-Code-Links)
### Authenticate Go requests to private projects
Prerequisites:
- Your GitLab instance must be accessible with HTTPS.
- You must have a [personal access token](../profile/personal_access_tokens.md).
To authenticate Go requests, create a [`.netrc`](https://everything.curl.dev/usingcurl/netrc) file with the following information:
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
```plaintext
machine gitlab.example.com
login <gitlab_user_name>
password <personal_access_token>
```
On Windows, Go reads `~/_netrc` instead of `~/.netrc`.
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
The `go` command does not transmit credentials over insecure connections. It authenticates
HTTPS requests made by Go, but does not authenticate requests made
through Git.
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
### Authenticate Git requests
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
If Go cannot fetch a module from a proxy, it uses Git. Git uses a `.netrc` file to authenticate requests, but you can
configure other authentication methods.
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
Configure Git to either:
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
- Embed credentials in the request URL:
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
```shell
git config --global url."https://${user}:${personal_access_token}@gitlab.example.com".insteadOf "https://gitlab.example.com"
```
- Use SSH instead of HTTPS:
```shell
git config --global url."git@gitlab.example.com".insteadOf "https://gitlab.example.com"
```
### Disable Go module fetching for private projects
To [fetch modules or packages](../../development/go_guide/dependencies.md#fetching), Go uses
the [environment variables](../../development/go_guide/dependencies.md#proxies):
2021-11-11 11:23:49 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
- `GOPRIVATE`
- `GONOPROXY`
- `GONOSUMDB`
2021-11-11 11:23:49 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
To disable fetching:
2021-11-11 11:23:49 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
1. Disable `GOPRIVATE`:
- To disable queries for one project, disable `GOPRIVATE=gitlab.example.com/my/private/project`.
- To disable queries for all projects on GitLab.com, disable `GOPRIVATE=gitlab.example.com`.
1. Disable proxy queries in `GONOPROXY`.
1. Disable checksum queries in `GONOSUMDB`.
2021-11-11 11:23:49 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
- If the module name or its prefix is in `GOPRIVATE` or `GONOPROXY`, Go does not query module
proxies.
- If the module name or its prefix is in `GONOPRIVATE` or `GONOSUMDB`, Go does not query
Checksum databases.

### Fetch Go modules from Geo secondary sites
Use [Geo](../../administration/geo/index.md) to access Git repositories that contain Go modules
on secondary Geo servers.
You can use SSH or HTTP to access the Geo secondary server.
#### Use SSH to access the Geo secondary server
To access the Geo secondary server with SSH:
2021-11-11 11:23:49 +05:30
1. Reconfigure Git on the client to send traffic for the primary to the secondary:
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
```shell
2021-11-11 11:23:49 +05:30
git config --global url."git@gitlab-secondary.example.com".insteadOf "https://gitlab.example.com"
git config --global url."git@gitlab-secondary.example.com".insteadOf "http://gitlab.example.com"
```
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
- For `gitlab.example.com`, use the primary site domain name.
- For `gitlab-secondary.example.com`, use the secondary site domain name.
1. Ensure the client is set up for SSH access to GitLab repositories. You can test this on the primary,
and GitLab replicates the public key to the secondary.
The `go get` request generates HTTP traffic to the primary Geo server. When the module
download starts, the `insteadOf` configuration sends the traffic to the secondary Geo server.
2021-11-11 11:23:49 +05:30
#### Use HTTP to access the Geo secondary
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
You must use persistent access tokens that replicate to the secondary server. You cannot use
CI/CD job tokens to fetch Go modules with HTTP.
2021-11-11 11:23:49 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
To access the Geo secondary server with HTTP:
2021-11-11 11:23:49 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
1. Add a Git `insteadOf` redirect on the client:
2021-11-11 11:23:49 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
```shell
2021-11-11 11:23:49 +05:30
git config --global url."https://gitlab-secondary.example.com".insteadOf "https://gitlab.example.com"
```
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
- For `gitlab.example.com`, use the primary site domain name.
- For `gitlab-secondary.example.com`, use the secondary site domain name.
2021-11-11 11:23:49 +05:30
1. Generate a [personal access token](../profile/personal_access_tokens.md) and
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
add the credentials in the client's `~/.netrc` file:
2021-11-11 11:23:49 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
```shell
2021-11-11 11:23:49 +05:30
machine gitlab.example.com login USERNAME password TOKEN
machine gitlab-secondary.example.com login USERNAME password TOKEN
```
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
The `go get` request generates HTTP traffic to the primary Geo server. When the module
download starts, the `insteadOf` configuration sends the traffic to the secondary Geo server.
