Gitaly supports TLS encryption. To communicate with a Gitaly instance that listens for secure
connections, you must use `tls://` URL scheme in the `gitaly_address` of the corresponding
storage entry in the GitLab configuration.
Gitaly provides the same server certificates as client certificates in TLS
connections to GitLab. This can be used as part of a mutual TLS authentication strategy
when combined with reverse proxies (for example, NGINX) that validate client certificate
to grant access to GitLab.
You must supply your own certificates as this isn't provided automatically. The certificate
corresponding to each Gitaly server must be installed on that Gitaly server.
