Description

Hi,

About tree years ago I've upgraded gitlab 11.9.5 -> 12.0.3 using docker-compose.yml.
Now I'm trying to upgrade above 12 and getting error:

rake aborted!
Your current database version is too old to be migrated. You should upgrade to GitLab 11.11.0 before moving to this version. Please see https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/policy/maintenance.html#upgrade-recommendations

It was my mistake skipping version 11.11.0.

How can I fix this issue?

Research direction

Start with docker-compose.yml and the linked GitLab upgrade recommendations, checking how the stated 11.9.5 to 12.0.3 upgrade affects the later migration. Done means the supported upgrade path or required intermediate version is established and documented for this deployment.
