Transition from git.rwth to git.nrw

Notice
Tue 06/02/2026 10:00 AM - Sat 10/31/2026 01:03 PM

As part of the rollout of a central GitLab instance for all universities in North Rhine-Westphalia, the git.rwth-aachen.de service will be migrated to git.nrw.

The transition started on June 2, 2026, and will continue until July 1, 2027.

The transition is currently in its first phase, the migration phase:
git.rwth-aachen.de will remain available for regular use until January 4, 2027.
Project managers should begin migrating their data to git.nrw or an alternative GitLab instance. Starting the migration early is recommended to ensure the availability of the projects. Project managers are responsible for migrating their projects themselves!

You can find migration instructions and information on the next steps in the transition process at the following link: https://help.itc.rwth-aachen.de/en/service/ubrf9cmzd17m/

Updates

Please note that the current migration may result in increased system load, which may occasionally cause performance to be slightly slower. We are continuously working on optimizations to improve stability and minimize any potential limitations.
