+# GitLab Web Editor
+
+Sometimes it's easier to make quick changes directly from the GitLab interface
+than to clone the project and use the Git command line tool. In this feature
+highlight we look at how you can create a new file, directory, branch or
+tag from the file browser. All of these actions are available from a single
+dropdown menu.
+
+## Create a file
+
+From a project's files page, click the '+' button to the right of the branch selector.
+Choose **New file** from the dropdown.
+
+![New file dropdown menu](img/web_editor_new_file_dropdown.png)
+
+---
+
+Enter a file name in the **File name** box. Then, add file content in the editor
+area. Add a descriptive commit message and choose a branch. The branch field
+will default to the branch you were viewing in the file browser. If you enter
+a new branch name, a checkbox will appear allowing you to start a new merge
+request after you commit the changes.
+
+When you are satisfied with your new file, click **Commit Changes** at the bottom.
+

+
+### Template dropdowns
+
+When starting a new project, there are some common files which the new project
+might need too. Therefore a message will be displayed by GitLab to make this
+easy for you.
+
+![First file for your project](img/web_editor_template_dropdown_first_file.png)
+
+When clicking on either `LICENSE` or `.gitignore`, a dropdown will be displayed
+to provide you with a template which might be suitable for your project.
+
+![MIT license selected](img/web_editor_template_dropdown_mit_license.png)
+
+The license, changelog, contribution guide, or `.gitlab-ci.yml` file could also
+be added through a button on the project page. In the example below the license
+has already been created, which creates a link to the license itself.
+
+![New file button](img/web_editor_template_dropdown_buttons.png)
+
+>**Note:**
+The **Set up CI** button will not appear on an empty repository. You have to at
+least add a file in order for the button to show up.
+
+## Upload a file
+
+The ability to create a file is great when the content is text. However, this
+doesn't work well for binary data such as images, PDFs or other file types. In
+this case you need to upload a file.
+
+From a project's files page, click the '+' button to the right of the branch
+selector. Choose **Upload file** from the dropdown.
+
+![Upload file dropdown menu](img/web_editor_upload_file_dropdown.png)
+
+---
+
+Once the upload dialog pops up there are two ways to upload your file. Either
+drag and drop a file on the pop up or use the **click to upload** link. A file
+preview will appear once you have selected a file to upload.
+
+Enter a commit message, choose a branch, and click **Upload file** when you are
+ready.
+
+![Upload file dialog](img/web_editor_upload_file_dialog.png)
+
+## Create a directory
+
+To keep files in the repository organized it is often helpful to create a new
+directory.
+
+From a project's files page, click the '+' button to the right of the branch selector.
+Choose **New directory** from the dropdown.
+
+![New directory dropdown](img/web_editor_new_directory_dropdown.png)
+
+---
+
+In the new directory dialog enter a directory name, a commit message and choose
+the target branch. Click **Create directory** to finish.
+
+![New directory dialog](img/web_editor_new_directory_dialog.png)
+
+## Create a new branch
+
+There are multiple ways to create a branch from GitLab's web interface.
+
+### Create a new branch from an issue
+
+> [Introduced][ce-2808] in GitLab 8.6.
+
+In case your development workflow dictates to have an issue for every merge
+request, you can quickly create a branch right on the issue page which will be
+tied with the issue itself. You can see a **New Branch** button after the issue
+description, unless there is already a branch with the same name or a referenced
+merge request.
+
+![New Branch Button](img/new_branch_from_issue.png)
+
+Once you click it, a new branch will be created that diverges from the default
+branch of your project, by default `master`. The branch name will be based on
+the title of the issue and as suffix it will have its ID. Thus, the example
+screenshot above will yield a branch named
+`2-et-cum-et-sed-expedita-repellat-consequatur-ut-assumenda-numquam-rerum`.
+
+After the branch is created, you can edit files in the repository to fix
+the issue. When a merge request is created based on the newly created branch,
+the description field will automatically display the [issue closing pattern]
+`Closes #ID`, where `ID` the ID of the issue. This will close the issue once the
+merge request is merged.
+
+### Create a new branch from a project's dashboard
+
+If you want to make changes to several files before creating a new merge
+request, you can create a new branch up front. From a project's files page,
+choose **New branch** from the dropdown.
+
+![New branch dropdown](img/web_editor_new_branch_dropdown.png)
+
+---
+
+Enter a new **Branch name**. Optionally, change the **Create from** field
+to choose which branch, tag or commit SHA this new branch will originate from.
+This field will autocomplete if you start typing an existing branch or tag.
+Click **Create branch** and you will be returned to the file browser on this new
+branch.
+
+![New branch page](img/web_editor_new_branch_page.png)
+
+---
+
+You can now make changes to any files, as needed. When you're ready to merge
+the changes back to master you can use the widget at the top of the screen.
+This widget only appears for a period of time after you create the branch or
+modify files.
+
+![New push widget](img/web_editor_new_push_widget.png)
+
+## Create a new tag
+
+Tags are useful for marking major milestones such as production releases,
+release candidates, and more. You can create a tag from a branch or a commit
+SHA. From a project's files page, choose **New tag** from the dropdown.
+
+![New tag dropdown](img/web_editor_new_tag_dropdown.png)
+
+---
+
+Give the tag a name such as `v1.0.0`. Choose the branch or SHA from which you
+would like to create this new tag. You can optionally add a message and
+release notes. The release notes section supports markdown format and you can
+also upload an attachment. Click **Create tag** and you will be taken to the tag
+list page.
+
+![New tag page](img/web_editor_new_tag_page.png)
+
+## Tips
+
+When creating or uploading a new file, or creating a new directory, you can
+trigger a new merge request rather than committing directly to master. Enter
+a new branch name in the **Target branch** field. You will notice a checkbox
+appear that is labeled **Start a new merge request with these changes**. After
+you commit the changes you will be taken to a new merge request form.
+
+![Start a new merge request with these changes](img/web_editor_start_new_merge_request.png)
