[manjaro-general] GitLab setup tips?

[J Fernyhough]

Thanks all, I got it set up and running nicely. I needed to make a
couple of tweaks to their instructions to get it working with Ruby 2
via RVM (and add in an nginx rewrite from http to https) but apart
from that it was pretty smooth!

I wonder whether an update when 6.3-stable is released will be easy to do...
