Redmine

In our company we have many small projects with files in a git-repo.

We wanted to get rid of this crontab-solution: HowTo: Easily integrate a (SSH secured) GIT repository into redmine
Also we never even tried the plugin redmine_git_remote because it doessnt seems to be maintained anymore.

So we set up a single VM running gitlab and redmine side by side.
This setup was choosen to keep usage of git repositories in redmine easy.
We planned to use the local repo-storage of gitlab directly in redmine.

Now, everything is set up, we see the following issue:

• Set up a repository in redmine and use the local path of the gitlab-repo:
  e.g.: /var/opt/gitlab/git-data/repositories/@hashed/7a/df/3ada92f28b4ceda38562ebf047c6ff0xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.git
• calling the repo leads to a 404-error
• production.log says:

Further information:

• redmine runs as root on our system
  So I dont think this might eb an issue with access-rights.
  To verify I changed the ownder of the repo-folder recursively.
  No change.
• I also tried to use a soft-link to this folder.
  also no change.

Maybe there is an issue with the @ in the path?
