*`/home/git/.ssh` - contains openssh settings. Specifically the `authorized_keys` file managed by gitlab-shell.
*`/home/git/gitlab` - GitLab core software.
*`/home/git/gitlab-satellites` - checked out repositories for merge requests and file editing from web UI. This can be treated as a temporary files directory.
*`/home/git/gitlab-shell` - Core add-on component of gitlab. Maintains SSH cloning and other functionality.
*`/home/git/repositories` - bare repositories for all projects organized by namespace. This is where the git repositories which are pushed/pulled are maintained for all projects. **This area is critical data for projects. [Keep a backup](../raketasks/backup_restore.md)**
**/home/git/.ssh**
*Note: the default locations for gitlab-satellites and repositories can be configured in `config/gitlab.yml` of gitlab and `config.yml` of gitlab-shell.*
**/home/git/gitlab**
To see a more in-depth overview see the [GitLab architecture doc](../development/architecture.md).
This is where GitLab lives.
**/home/git/gitlab-satellites**
Contains a copy of all repositories with a working tree.
It's used for merge requests, editing files, etc.
**/home/git/repositories**
Holds all your repositories in bare format.
This is the place Git uses when you pull/push to your projects.
You can change them in your `config/gitlab.yml` file.
