Got user; got root (thank you @TazWake and @Shad0wQu35t). Could someone PM me and explain why it was necessary to m***** //*? Please remove if that is too much info but once I had root the way I got to root.txt is not clear to me (I know then how did I get it? - Google!). But still not clear on how Gitlab (or something else?) interacts with the “f— s-----”.
