What should I do if GitLab is down for me?

Retry the git operation first; runners and the web UI can be degraded independently of the git backend. Check whether it's only CI — pipelines stuck in 'pending' usually mean runner capacity, not an outage. Re-authenticate if pushes fail: GitLab access tokens expire, and 2FA requires a token rather than a password over HTTPS. For self-managed instances, your own instance being down says nothing about GitLab.com.

GitLab is a single application covering repositories, CI/CD, issue tracking, and container registry, offered as SaaS on gitlab.com and self-managed. On the hosted service, shared CI runners are the most common source of trouble, so pipelines sit pending while the web interface and git access behave normally.
