===Setup===
To use your own PVs and PVCs,

** Note that the gitaly PVC should be named <code>repo-data-gitlab-gitaly-0</code>
* Set the following values:
<pre>
minio:
  replicas: 2
  persistence:
    volumeName: gitlab-minio
redis:
  persistence:
    existingClaim: gitlab-redis
postgresql:
  persistence:
    existingClaim: gitlab-postgres
</pre>
