@vogdb: Reminder: When updating GitLab, update first to latest minor release (e.g. from 14.8.2 to 14.8.9), then start GitLab and when it is running (Docker container status from health: starting to healthy), update to first minor version of the next major release (e.g. from 14.8.9. to 15.0.0). Then repeat until you reached the desired (usually the latest) GitLab release. Jumping releases often won't work and you have to downgrade back to the previous version and go up by minor version, as described above.

@vogdb: Note that with GitLab 17 the options sidekiq['max_concurrency'] and gitaly['ruby_max_rss'] were removed and have to be removed from docker-compose.yml in order to allow GitLab to start up (reconfiguration step during startup).
