Description

Hi
I need to change my SMTP_PASS that i set previously, I change it in /sbin/entrypoint.sh and restart the docker container but it doesn't help, also i change it in /home/git/gitlab/config/initializers smtp_settings.rb and after restarting the container it resets to the previous one, I need to change it, how can i do that?

Research direction

Start by reading /sbin/entrypoint.sh and /home/git/gitlab/config/initializers/smtp_settings.rb to trace where SMTP_PASS is set and overwritten during container startup. Confirm the documented configuration path, then verify that the changed password remains effective after restarting the container.
