Hey all,

A quick note that, after discussion on T288392[0], we've reconfigured
gitlab.wikimedia.org to use shell names for users instead of the LDAP
CN, and renamed all existing logins to match. This seems like a better
match for most users' expectations, and better ergonomics overall.

As a quick example, I was BrennenBearnes before, and now am at:

https://gitlab.wikimedia.org/brennen/

GitLab handles redirects for renamed users both in the web interface and
for git remotes, but if you want to reconfigure the remote URL for an
existing clone of a repo, you can do something like the following,
substituting your new username:

$ git remote set-url origin git@gitlab.wikimedia.org:brennen/test.git

[0]. https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T288392
