Taking this one step further, keeping in mind that we use the web interface 
solely for repo creation, access admin and the wiki, would there be any 
major problems with changing the perms on the satellite directory so that 
nothing could be written there in the future?  Or just symlinking it to 
/dev/null so that gitlabs would think it's writing just fine but it would 
all just go into oblivion instead of bloating the drive?
