The state path now, since the transition from initialization in preStart to using systemd-tmpfiles, has the following restriction: no parent directory can be owned by any other user than root or the user specified in services.gitlab.user. This is a potentially breaking change and the cause of the error isn't immediately obvious, so document it both in the release notes and statePath description.
To build the manual, you need Nix installed on your system (no need
for NixOS). To install Nix, follow the instructions at
https://nixos.org/nix/download.html
When you have Nix on your system, in the root directory of the project
(i.e., `nixpkgs`), run:
nix-build nixos/release.nix -A manual.x86_64-linux
When this command successfully finishes, it will tell you where the
manual got generated.
