Today we are releasing version 9.5.7 for GitLab Community Edition (CE) and Enterprise Edition (EE).

This version resolves a single regression introduced in 9.5.4, which prevented admins from importing repositories from the command line.

<!-- more -->

It includes the following fix:

- **CE/EE** Fix gitlab rake:import:repos task for 9.5.x ([!14639])

[!14639]: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/merge_requests/14639

## Upgrade barometer

This version does not include any new migrations, and should not require any
downtime.

Please be aware that by default the Omnibus packages will stop, run migrations,
and start again, no matter how “big” or “small” the upgrade is. This behavior
can be changed by adding a [`/etc/gitlab/skip-auto-migrations`
file](http://doc.gitlab.com/omnibus/update/README.html).
