  body: |
    You can no longer specify Redis configuration file locations
    using the environment variables like `GITLAB_REDIS_CACHE_CONFIG_FILE` or
    `GITLAB_REDIS_QUEUES_CONFIG_FILE`. Use the default
    configuration file locations instead, for example `config/redis.cache.yml` or
    `config/redis.queues.yml`.
