- Use --netlink to avoid systemd-udev-settle[1]
- Run daemon in foreground which is preferred with systemd
- Add unit documentation
- Write ExecStart directly, no need for a script

To make it easier to start and stop all GitLab services, introduce
`gitlab.target` which wants all services (meaning they will start with
it) and which all services are part of (meaning they will stop with
it).
Make the config initialization script run in gitlab.service's PreStart
section into two new services, `gitlab-config.service` and
`gitlab-db-config.service`. Other services can then depend on the
config scripts they need instead of unnecessarily depending on
`gitlab.service`. This makes the reason for the configured service
dependencies much clearer and should also reduce the restart time of
the `gitlab` service quite a lot, when triggered manually.
Also, set up stricter service dependencies, using `bindsTo`, to ensure
that if a service fails or is stopped, its dependants are also
stopped. For example, if we're using the `postgresql` service and it's
stopped, `gitlab.service` and `gitlab-sidekiq.service`, which depend on
it to function, should also be stopped.
A function is more appropriate for this use. See
http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashFAQ/050 for reference.
Also, we don't need to run the service as root: since we essentially
run all commands as `services.postgresql.superUser` anyway, the whole
service can just run as that user instead.
Change the default SMTP port to `25`, to better match the default
address `localhost`. This gets rid of some error outputs in the test,
where it fails to connect to localhost:465.
Also, don't enable postfix by default unless it's actually useful to
us.
This removes all the subdirectories in `config` on start.
From one version of GitLab to the next, the files in the `config`
directory changes. Since we're only overwriting the existing files
with ones from the repo, cruft sometimes gets left behind,
occationally causing issues.
Ideally, all configuration put in the `config` directory is declared
by NixOS options and we could just remove the whole directory on
start, but I'm not sure if that's the case. It would also require a
little bit of additional rework and testing. The subdirectories,
however, should seldom contain user configuration and the ones that
frequently does, `initializers`, is already removed on start.
Say this 10 times so I don't forget:

I'm sorry guys.
4255954d97 set the StateDirectory to 0750,
but nginx wasn't in the Mastodon group. This commit also deletes a line,
that probably was intended to serve this purpose, but makes no sense.
Why should the Mastodon user be added as an extraGroup to the nginx
user?
