Restart Gitaly when updating Gitlab-Shell token
What does this MR do?
Originally Gitaly would shell out to Gitlab-Shell to make internal API calls. This had no retained state regarding the secret token, so no service restarts were required in this scenario.
However, for several years the main Gitaly process has been responsible for calling the internal API. This will only read the Gitlab-Shell secret file during its startup process, and subsequent changes to that will not be detected by Gitaly, leading to spurious 401 errors.
To resolve this, restart the Gitaly service when updating
gitlab_shell['secret_token']
.
