Confirm gitlab email by CLI

On your gitlab server run gitlab-rails console production

Find your user via user = User.find_by(email: "youroldemail@example.com")

Optionally change the user's email with user.email = "yournewemail@example.com" Then run user.save!

Get the user's token with user.confirmation_token

I used this to change my email on a gitlab instance without an email server.
