# Project settings **(FREE)**
2018-03-17 18:26:18 +05:30
2021-02-22 17:27:13 +05:30
NOTE:
2021-01-03 14:25:43 +05:30
Only project maintainers and administrators have the [permissions ](../../permissions.md#project-members-permissions )
2021-04-29 21:17:54 +05:30
to access project settings.
2018-03-17 18:26:18 +05:30
2021-04-29 21:17:54 +05:30
The **Settings** page in GitLab provides a centralized home for your
[project ](../index.md ) configuration options. To access it, go to your project's homepage
and, in the left navigation menu, clicking **Settings** . To reduce complexity, settings are
grouped by topic into sections. To display all settings in a section, click **Expand** .
In GitLab versions [13.10 and later ](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/4842 ),
GitLab displays a search box to help you find the settings you want to view.
2018-03-17 18:26:18 +05:30
## General settings
2019-09-30 21:07:59 +05:30
Under a project's general settings, you can find everything concerning the
2018-03-17 18:26:18 +05:30
functionality of a project.
### General project settings
2021-04-29 21:17:54 +05:30
Adjust your project's name, description, avatar, [default branch ](../repository/branches/default.md ), and topics:
2018-03-17 18:26:18 +05:30
2021-04-29 21:17:54 +05:30
![general project settings ](img/general_settings_v13_11.png )
2018-03-17 18:26:18 +05:30
2021-10-27 15:23:28 +05:30
The project description also partially supports [standard Markdown ](../../markdown.md#features-extended-from-standard-markdown ).
You can use [emphasis ](../../markdown.md#emphasis ), [links ](../../markdown.md#links ), and
[line-breaks ](../../markdown.md#line-breaks ) to add more context to the project description.

#### Compliance frameworks **(PREMIUM)**
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
> - [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/276221) in GitLab 13.9.
2021-06-08 01:23:25 +05:30
> - [Feature flag removed](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/287779) in GitLab 13.12.
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
2021-10-27 15:23:28 +05:30
You can create a framework label to identify that your project has certain compliance requirements
or needs additional oversight.
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
2021-10-27 15:23:28 +05:30
Group owners can create, edit, and delete compliance frameworks:
1. Go to the group's **Settings** > **General** .
1. Expand the **Compliance frameworks** section.
Compliance frameworks created can then be assigned to any number of projects using:
- The project settings page inside the group or subgroups.
- In [GitLab 14.2 ](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/333249 ) and later, using the
[GraphQL API ](../../../api/graphql/reference/index.md#mutationprojectsetcomplianceframework ).
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
2021-06-08 01:23:25 +05:30
NOTE:
2021-10-27 15:23:28 +05:30
Creating compliance frameworks on subgroups with GraphQL causes the framework to be
created on the root ancestor if the user has the correct permissions. The GitLab UI presents a
read-only view to discourage this behavior.
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
2021-04-29 21:17:54 +05:30
#### Compliance pipeline configuration **(ULTIMATE)**
2021-10-27 15:23:28 +05:30
> - [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/3156) in GitLab 13.9, disabled behind `ff_evaluate_group_level_compliance_pipeline` [feature flag](../../../administration/feature_flags.md).
2021-04-29 21:17:54 +05:30
> - [Enabled by default](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/300324) in GitLab 13.11.
2021-10-27 15:23:28 +05:30
> - [Feature flag removed](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/331231) in GitLab 14.2.
2021-04-29 21:17:54 +05:30
Group owners can use the compliance pipeline configuration to define compliance requirements
such as scans or tests, and enforce them in individual projects.
2021-06-08 01:23:25 +05:30
The [custom compliance framework ](#compliance-frameworks ) feature allows group owners to specify the location
2021-04-29 21:17:54 +05:30
of a compliance pipeline configuration stored and managed in a dedicated project, distinct from a developer's project.
When you set up the compliance pipeline configuration field, use the
`file@group/project` format. For example, you can configure
`.compliance-gitlab-ci.yml@compliance-group/compliance-project` .
This field is inherited by projects where the compliance framework label is applied. The result
forces the project to run the compliance configurations.
When a project with a custom label executes a pipeline, it begins by evaluating the compliance pipeline configuration.
The custom pipeline configuration can then execute any included individual project configuration.
The user running the pipeline in the project should at least have Reporter access to the compliance project.
Example `.compliance-gitlab-ci.yml`
```yaml
2021-06-08 01:23:25 +05:30
# Allows compliance team to control the ordering and interweaving of stages/jobs.
# Stages without jobs defined will remain hidden.

##### Ensure compliance jobs are always run
Compliance pipelines use GitLab CI/CD to give you an incredible amount of flexibility
for defining any sort of compliance jobs you like. Depending on your goals, these jobs
can be configured to be:
- Modified by users.
- Non-modifiable.
At a high-level, if a value in a compliance job:
- Is set, it cannot be changed or overridden by project-level configurations.
- Is not set, a project-level configuration may set.
Either might be wanted or not depending on your use case.
There are a few best practices for ensuring that these jobs are always run exactly
as you define them and that downstream, project-level pipeline configurations
cannot change them:
- Add a `rules:when:always` block to each of your compliance jobs. This ensures they are
non-modifiable and are always run.
- Explicitly set any variables the job references. This:
- Ensures that project-level pipeline configurations do not set them and alter their
behavior.
- Includes any jobs that drive the logic of your job.
- Explicitly set the container image file to run the job in. This ensures that your script
steps execute in the correct environment.
2021-09-30 23:02:18 +05:30
- Explicitly set any relevant GitLab pre-defined [job keywords ](../../../ci/yaml/index.md#job-keywords ).
2021-09-04 01:27:46 +05:30
This ensures that your job uses the settings you intend and that they are not overriden by
project-level pipelines.
2018-03-17 18:26:18 +05:30
### Sharing and permissions
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
For your repository, you can set up features such as public access, repository features,
documentation, access permissions, and more. To do so from your project,
go to **Settings** > **General** , and expand the **Visibility, project features, permissions**
section.
2018-03-17 18:26:18 +05:30
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
You can now change the [Project visibility ](../../../public_access/public_access.md ).
If you set **Project Visibility** to public, you can limit access to some features
to **Only Project Members** . In addition, you can select the option to
2021-09-04 01:27:46 +05:30
[Allow users to request access ](../members/index.md#prevent-users-from-requesting-access-to-a-project ).
2018-03-17 18:26:18 +05:30
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
Use the switches to enable or disable the following features:

2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
Some features depend on others:
- If you disable the **Issues** option, GitLab also removes the following
features:
- **Issue Boards**
2020-11-24 15:15:51 +05:30
- [**Service Desk** ](#service-desk )
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
2021-02-22 17:27:13 +05:30
NOTE:
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
When the **Issues** option is disabled, you can still access **Milestones**
from merge requests.
2021-04-17 20:07:23 +05:30
- Additionally, if you disable both **Issues** and **Merge Requests** , you cannot access:
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
- **Labels**

- If you disable **Repository** functionality, GitLab also disables the following
features for your project:
- **Merge Requests**
- **Pipelines**
- **Container Registry**
- **Git Large File Storage**
- **Packages**
2019-12-04 20:38:33 +05:30
2020-05-24 23:13:21 +05:30
- Metrics dashboard access requires reading both project environments and deployments.
Users with access to the metrics dashboard can also access environments and deployments.
2021-10-27 15:23:28 +05:30

2018-03-17 18:26:18 +05:30
#### Archiving a project
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
Archiving a project makes it read-only for all users and indicates that it's
2018-05-09 12:01:36 +05:30
no longer actively maintained. Projects that have been archived can also be
2021-01-03 14:25:43 +05:30
unarchived. Only project owners and administrators have the
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
[permissions ](../../permissions.md#project-members-permissions ) to archive a project.
2018-05-09 12:01:36 +05:30
2020-10-24 23:57:45 +05:30
When a project is archived, the repository, packages, issues, merge requests, and all
2018-05-09 12:01:36 +05:30
other features are read-only. Archived projects are also hidden
in project listings.
To archive a project:
2018-03-17 18:26:18 +05:30
2020-10-24 23:57:45 +05:30
1. Navigate to your project's **Settings > General** .
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
1. Under **Advanced** , click **Expand** .
1. In the **Archive project** section, click the **Archive project** button.
1. Confirm the action when asked to.
#### Unarchiving a project
Unarchiving a project removes the read-only restriction on a project, and makes it
2021-01-03 14:25:43 +05:30
available in project listings. Only project owners and administrators have the
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
[permissions ](../../permissions.md#project-members-permissions ) to unarchive a project.
To find an archived project:
2021-10-27 15:23:28 +05:30
1. Sign in to GitLab as the project owner or a user with the Administrator role.
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
1. If you:
- Have the project's URL, open the project's page in your browser.
- Don't have the project's URL:
2021-09-04 01:27:46 +05:30
1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Project** .
1. Select **Explore projects** .
1. In the **Sort projects** dropdown box, select **Show archived projects** .
1. In the **Filter by name** field, provide the project's name.
1. Click the link to the project to open its **Details** page.
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
Next, to unarchive the project:
2020-10-24 23:57:45 +05:30
1. Navigate to your project's **Settings > General** .
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
1. Under **Advanced** , click **Expand** .
1. In the **Unarchive project** section, click the **Unarchive project** button.
2018-03-17 18:26:18 +05:30
1. Confirm the action when asked to.
#### Renaming a repository
2021-02-22 17:27:13 +05:30
NOTE:
2021-01-03 14:25:43 +05:30
Only project maintainers and administrators have the [permissions ](../../permissions.md#project-members-permissions ) to rename a
2018-03-17 18:26:18 +05:30
repository. Not to be confused with a project's name where it can also be
changed from the [general project settings ](#general-project-settings ).
A project's repository name defines its URL (the one you use to access the
project via a browser) and its place on the file disk where GitLab is installed.
To rename a repository:
2020-10-24 23:57:45 +05:30
1. Navigate to your project's **Settings > General** .
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
1. Under **Advanced** , click **Expand** .
2021-02-22 17:27:13 +05:30
1. Under **Change path** , update the repository's path.
1. Click **Change path** .
2018-03-17 18:26:18 +05:30
Remember that this can have unintended side effects since everyone with the
2021-04-17 20:07:23 +05:30
old URL can't push or pull. Read more about what happens with the
2021-09-04 01:27:46 +05:30
[redirects when renaming repositories ](../repository/index.md#what-happens-when-a-repository-path-changes ).
2018-03-17 18:26:18 +05:30
#### Transferring an existing project into another namespace
2021-02-22 17:27:13 +05:30
NOTE:
2021-01-03 14:25:43 +05:30
Only project owners and administrators have the [permissions ](../../permissions.md#project-members-permissions )
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
to transfer a project.
2018-03-17 18:26:18 +05:30
You can transfer an existing project into a [group ](../../group/index.md ) if:

#### Removing a fork relationship
Forking is a great way to [contribute to a project ](../repository/forking_workflow.md )
of which you're not a member.
If you want to use the fork for yourself and don't need to send
2021-01-03 14:25:43 +05:30
[merge requests ](../merge_requests/index.md ) to the upstream project,
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
you can safely remove the fork relationship.
2021-02-22 17:27:13 +05:30
WARNING:
2021-04-17 20:07:23 +05:30
Once removed, the fork relationship cannot be restored. You can't send merge requests to the source, and if anyone has forked your project, their fork also loses the relationship.
2020-04-08 14:13:33 +05:30
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
To do so:
1. Navigate to your project's **Settings > General > Advanced** .
1. Under **Remove fork relationship** , click the likewise-labeled button.
1. Confirm the action by typing the project's path as instructed.
