How to list gitlab-rake tasks
You can list the tasks available in your GitLab’s gitlab-rake using
gitlab-rake -T
In case you’re running a docker-compose based configuration, you can use
docker-compose exec gitlab gitlab-rake -T
where gitlab is the name of the docker-compose service in docker-compose.yml.
This will show you a list like
