An user had, in 2016, installed a gitlab (8.x, don't recall x

However, the upgrade to Fedora 28 has stopped this from working. We
tried upgrading gitlab using step by step the 8.x+ version but it is
unable to update and unusable.
Not surprising since the latest version on their page is 10.8.
Any suggestions as to what we should be looking at and how to fix
this. I guess the hope is to have a functional gitlab on the Fedora
28 system.
There is nothing in the fedora repositories, so it has to be done using
the gitlab tools.
I just had a look at this page
https://about.gitlab.com/installation/
I see there installation instructions for both centos7 and a docker
image. I think in F28 it is possible to install the docker image (a
self contained gitlab instance?). But it should also be possible to
use the centos7 image. I haven't tried either, so could be wrong, and
there will probably be some tweaking required for the centos7 procedure.
