Hot on the heels of today's [big 8.0 release](/2015/09/22/gitlab-8-0-released/),
we are releasing version 8.0.1 for Community Edition (CE), Enterprise Edition
(EE), and Continuous Integration (CI).

It includes the following fixes:

- **CE/EE/CI**: Improve CI migration procedure and documentation
- **EE**: Correct gem dependency versions
- **EE**: Re-add the "Help Text" feature that was inadvertently removed
- **Omnibus**: Revert "Do not buffer with nginx git http requests"

<!-- more -->

***Update*** *(2015-09-22 20:45 UTC)*: Omnibus packages for this release have
been updated to fix an upgrade issue. Fixed packages have a `.1` Omnibus patch
version (e.g., `8.0.1-ee.1` and `8.0.1-ce.1`).

## Upgrade barometer

This version does not include any new migrations, and should not require any
downtime.<commit_msg>Be more explicit about why the Omnibus packages were updated<commit_after>---

***Update*** *(2015-09-22 22:00 UTC)*: Omnibus packages for this release have
been updated to resolve the [No resource, method, or local variable named
`ci_service`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/2670) error some of
our users saw during the upgrade process. Fixed packages have a `.1` Omnibus
patch version (e.g., `8.0.1-ee.1` and `8.0.1-ce.1`). If you've already upgraded
to GitLab 8.0.1 without issue, you can safely ignore this update.
