## Single codebase
We maintain two sets of docs: one in the
[gitlab-ce](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/tree/master/doc) repo and
one in [gitlab-ee](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/tree/master/doc).
These are identical, but they are different repositories.
### CE first
All merge requests for documentation must be submitted to CE. This means that:
- For **EE-only docs changes**, you only have to submit an MR in the CE project.
- For **EE-only features** that touch both the code and the docs, you have to submit
an EE MR containing all code changes, and a CE MR containing only the docs changes
and without a changelog entry.
This might seem like a duplicate effort, but it's only for the short term.
Since the CE and EE docs are combined, it's crucial to add the relevant
[product badges](styleguide.md#product-badges) for all EE documentation, so that
we can determine which features belong to which tier.
### EE specific lines check
There's a special test in place
([`ee_specific_check.rb`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/blob/master/scripts/ee_specific_check/ee_specific_check.rb)),
which checks and prevents creating or editing new files or directories
in EE under `doc/`. This should fail when changes to anything in `/doc` are submitted
in an EE MR. To pass the test, simply remove the docs changes from the EE MR, and
[submit them in CE](#ce-first).

### Cherry-picking from CE to EE
As we have the `master` branch of CE merged into EE once a day, it's common to
run into merge conflicts. To avoid them, we [test for merge conflicts against EE](#testing)
with the `ee-compat-check` job, and use the following method of creating equivalent
branches for CE and EE.
Follow this [method for cherry-picking from CE to EE](../automatic_ce_ee_merge.md#cherry-picking-from-ce-to-ee), with a few adjustments:
- Create the [CE branch](#branch-naming) starting with `docs-`,
e.g.: `git checkout -b docs-example`
- Create the EE-equivalent branch ending with `-ee`, e.g.,
`git checkout -b docs-example-ee`
- Once all the jobs are passing in CE and EE, and you've addressed the
feedback from your own team, assign the CE MR to a technical writer for review
- When both MRs are ready, the EE merge request will be merged first, and the
CE-equivalent will be merged next.
- Note that the review will occur only in the CE MR, as the EE MR
contains the same commits as the CE MR.
- If you have a few more changes that apply to the EE-version only, you can submit
a couple more commits to the EE branch, but ask the reviewer to review the EE merge request
additionally to the CE MR. If there are many EE-only changes though, start a new MR
to EE only.
