How to know the correct upgrade path?

How to Use GitLab
1

Hi,

My GitLab version is CE 13.12.10, and I want to upgrade it to meet the " GitLab Security Release: 14.4.1, 14.3.4, and 14.2.6".

What’s the next version should I upgrade? E.g. apt-get install gitlab-ce=X.Y.Z-ce.0

Many thanks,
YJ

Hi,

As per the docs here and the upgrade path: Upgrading GitLab | GitLab

13.8.8 -> 13.12.15 -> latest 14.0.Z -> latest 14.1.Z -> latest 14.Y.Z

you are in between 13.8.8 and 13.12.15, so your first upgrade is 13.12.15, then check background migrations have finished before starting the next one. So effectively the next is the latest 14.0.x release, then latest 14.1.x release and then latest 14.5.x release. Obviously checking background migrations after each and every upgrade. So you have 4 in total to do.
