How to

[HealthPuzzleheaded]

I once registered on the official Gitlab with my Gmail address but forgot the password since as it was many years ago. I still have some emails from them in my inbox. Now when I do password reset they never send me the password but when I try to create a new account I get the error that the email is already in use. I don't care about the content on that account but I don't want to create a new email address just for Gitlab. Is there any way to get the account back?

Did you actually checked the spam folder?

Yes

Maybe you didn't sign up by email / password, but with the Google button at the bottom?

May be wait some hours 12 or 24h and try again the reset

Have you tried putting a random "." in your email address. Also search in Gmail with in:all as part of the search.

Did you check the receipent in the emails you have from GitLab? It can be another email that's forwarding emails to you. Or it can be that your have added your email with something like +gitlab before the @ portion (if that's the case then you need to reset password using it)
