Why are GItLab custom avatars broken?

Posted on May 20, 2015

For some strange reason, after disabling Gravatar on a GitLab server, all of the images don’t render, as the server tries to retrieve them from about.gitlab.com, rather than the server’s IP address. I am given a 404 error from nginx when I go to view the image in a new tab. Any ideas?
