## Schedule a repository storage move for a project
> - [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/34119) in GitLab 13.1.
> - [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitaly/-/issues/2618) in GitLab 13.3, original repository is automatically removed after successful move and integrity check.
CAUTION: **Caution:**
Before GitLab 13.3, a repository move worked more like a repository copy as the
original repository was not deleted from the original storage disk location and
had to be manually cleaned up.
