How to set custom headers (including User-Agent)?

By providing a Gitlab\HttpClient\Builder to the Gitlab\Client constructor, you can customize the HTTP client.

$plugin = new Http\Client\Common\Plugin\HeaderSetPlugin([
    'User-Agent' => 'Foobar',
]);

$builder = new Gitlab\HttpClient\Builder();
$builder->addPlugin($plugin);

$client = new Gitlab\Client($builder);

How to customize the HTTP client timeout?

As timeout configuration is not compatible with HTTP client abstraction, you have to create the Gitlab\Client with an explicit HTTP client implementation.

$httpClient = Http\Adapter\Guzzle6::createWithConfig([
    'timeout' => 1.0
]);
$client = Gitlab\Client::createWithHttpClient($httpClient);
