Design

So both:

• https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce
• https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/tree/master

should be adjusted to look like: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/20919#note_19320942

Is there a way that we also reduce the container width of README.md? I just wonder if we just reduce the line-width and center it, there are probably too much white space in the container.

1280px

1980px

Do those mockups follow the same widths as the issue/mr pages @hazelyang? Container width: 958px, Paragraph width: 700px?

@tauriedavis Thanks for the reminder.

I am just thinking the container should be 958px or 980px.

Updated the mockup.

• Container width: 980px --> 958px
• Paragraph width: 790px --> 700px (My bad)

@tauriedavis @dimitrieh Should the solution for this & #20914 (closed) be the same?

@iamphill yes, as back when this issue was made.. the files table was not yet in the "project's home" view.

So both:

• https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce
• https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/tree/master

should be adjusted to look like: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/20919#note_19320942

updated issue description

as discussed with @iamphill i think it suffices to just limit the width of the text within the readme panel:
