其实就是使用tar打包过程，db 和 repositories 除外！！
各位看官，说到这里是不是想起来点什么，继续往下看哦 ！！！
6.数据还原过程
Unpacking backup ... done
Before restoring the database, we will remove all existing
tables to avoid future upgrade problems. Be aware that if you have
custom tables in the GitLab database these tables and all data will be
removed.
Do you want to continue (yes/no)? yes
Removing all tables. Press `Ctrl-C` within 5 seconds to abort

7.解决数据还原
#cd /var/opt/gitlab/backups
#ls
1528963129_2018_06_14_10.8.4_gitlab_backup.tar backup_information.yml db
pages.tar.gz tmp artifacts.tar.gz builds.tar.gz lfs.tar.gz repositories
uploads.tar.gz
restore handy：
#tar xf uploads.tar.gz -C /var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/uploads
#tar xf builds.tar.gz -C /var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-ci/builds
#tar xf pages.tar.gz -C /var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/pages
#tar xf artifacts.tar.gz -C /var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/artifacts
***************************以下是我自己搭建的gitlab（版本号：11.6.5）上遇到问题*********************************
但是检查以上4个目录，和原版本没有区别，已经恢复成功了，但是报错（难道这又是官方bug），既然已经成功恢复了，那就先不管了
看到这里是不是欣喜若狂，毕竟Gitlab是基础服务，程序员的结晶之地啊！！！
注意： db、repositories 的数据已经还原，了解本质过程很重要的，万物皆有相克！！！
如果数据还原没有提到的，请自行脑补啊，不在多做累述！！！
#以下命令对还原数据可靠性检测
#gitlab-ctl reconfigure
#gitlab-ctl restart
#gitlab-rake gitlab:check SANITIZE=true
