GitLab 18.1.2 Patch Release Improves Stability and Fixes Critical Bugs

The GitLab team has released GitLab 18.1.2, a vital patch that addresses a number of bugs discovered in version 18.1.1. This update continues GitLab’s commitment to delivering reliable and secure development operations tooling.

Notably, this patch fixes an error that could occur when resolving projects referenced in package.json files within the Visual Studio Code GitLab Workflow extension. With this change, developers using VS Code in combination with GitLab’s DevSecOps platform will benefit from a more seamless developer experience.

GitLab 18.1.2 also resolves issues in the Geo replication feature, specifically improving behaviour when dealing with pending_delete project states on secondary nodes. This ensures better stability in replicated multi-site configurations—a key concern for enterprise teams operating GitLab across large global infrastructures.

Additionally, the release includes minor interface and dependency fixes, which enhance general platform performance and reliability. These housekeeping changes are part of GitLab’s agile approach to quickly delivering value and addressing issues reported by the community and clients.

The GitLab team strongly advises all users running GitLab 18.1.1 to upgrade to version 18.1.2 as soon as possible.
