# `Gemfile` guidelines
|
|
|
|
When adding a new entry to `Gemfile` or upgrading an existing dependency pay
|
|
attention to the following rules.
|
|
|
|
## No gems fetched from Git repositories
|
|
|
|
We do not allow gems that are fetched from Git repositories. All gems have
|
|
to be available in the RubyGems index. We want to minimize external build
|
|
dependencies and build times.
|
|
|
|
## License compliance
|
|
|
|
Refer to [licensing guidelines](licensing.md) for ensuring license compliance.
|
|
|
|
## Upgrade Rails
|
|
|
|
When upgrading the Rails gem and its dependencies, you also should update the following:
|
|
|
|
- The [`Gemfile` in the `qa` directory](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/qa/Gemfile).
|
|
- The [`Gemfile` in Gitaly Ruby](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitaly/-/blob/master/ruby/Gemfile),
|
|
to ensure that we ship only one version of these gems.
|
|
|
|
You should also update npm packages that follow the current version of Rails:
|
|
|
|
- `@rails/ujs`
|
|
- `@rails/actioncable`
|
