- This feature requires GitLab Runner **1.8** or higher.
- For GitLab Runner versions **>= 0.6, <1.8** there was a partial
support for using private registries, which required manual configuration
of credentials on runner's host. We recommend to upgrade your runner to
at least version **1.8** if you want to use private registries.
