Every artifact your teams ship, assembled right the first time

Introduces GitLab Artifact Central, an organization-level registry that replaces project-level ones. It offers Hosted, Remote (proxy), and Virtual repository types. Key features include centralized policy management (retention, storage, access), organization-level roles separate from project roles, and automatic build provenance (pipeline, branch, commit, job token) attached to artifacts. It supports Maven, npm, Docker, and OCI formats. It integrates with Dependency Firewall and offers a gradual migration path by adding existing repos as remotes.
