How to add icon to my repository?

We as a developer sometimes need a change to make our tools look different.

You can add a small(I prefer 96px x 96px) logo.png image file to the root of your repository.

Which makes your project more specific and easy to find with gitlab or SourceTree git client. Unfortunately github does not support this feature.

It is very simple but it works!

Update: Thanks to your comments I have found another way within Gitlab repository settings:

hope you enjoy this trick and make your tools more fun :)

If you want to put an icon on your project in Gitlab, do the following instructions:

1. Go to your project then in left side click on 'Setting'
2. Click on 'General' then in 'General project' section hit Expand
3. Then in project avatar section hit Choose file... your avatar icon file and upload it.
4. Finally hit Save changes
