title: gitlab-ce 12.X : how do I find the hashed storage path of a repository on the server?
body: <p>With gitlab-ce-12.x, Geo requires the storage path to be hashed (<a href="https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/administration/repository_storage_types.html" rel="noreferrer">https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/administration/repository_storage_types.html</a>) </p>
  
  <p>For a given repository, the data will therefore be stored in :
  "@hashed/#{hash[0..1]}/#{hash[2..3]}/#{hash}.git"</p>
  
  <p>From a practical point of view, say I have a repository whose URL is </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p><a href="https://my-gitlab-server/Group1/project1.git" rel="noreferrer">https://my-gitlab-server/Group1/project1.git</a></p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>How do I work out the path to the storage on the server ?
  i.e. how do i find the value of </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p><code>#{hash[0..1]}/#{hash[2..3]}/#{hash}</code></p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
