Recently, we enabled email notifications from GitLab on https://renkulab.io and https://limited.renku.ch. Previously, users had to rely on the GitLab activity page to stay on top of changes in their projects. From now on, renkulab’s GitLab will also send some notifications by email - please refer to the official GitLab documentation if you need to change the frequency of those notifications.
