The name used in the email.

• gitlab_rails[‘ldap_enabled’] = true
  Enable LDAP service

Save and close the configuration file.

Execute reconfigure

sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure

This operation will reconfigure GitLab, using the previously changed configuration parameters.

At this point, you have successfully installed GitLab 7 and can start implementing your project code management!
