GitlabUnlimited free private repositories!2018-08-02T16:38:29.799ZWe use Gitlab as a way to backup, host, and distribute source code via Git version control. It is used across our entire organization, but only about 80% of our Git repositories are hosted on Gitlab (the rest are on GitHub). We chose Gitlab for hosting the majority of our repositories because it allows us to keep an unlimited number of these repositories private for free. This is a paid feature of its major competitor, GitHub.,Free unlimited private repositories. I'm not aware of another hosted Git platform that offers this.
Gitlab CI has first-class support for continuous integration features. This makes it easy to seamlessly integrate tests, deployments, and other triggers into your development workflow.
It's open source, so you can run a self-hosted version if your organization requires it. This makes it easy to switch if new compliance or security requirements forced you to house all source code on a private network.,Third-party integrations. Many developer tools integrate deeply with GitHub, but lack support for Gitlab. Gitlab does have webhook support so it's possible to build your own integrations, but this can be time-consuming.
Gitlab's main competitor (GitHub) has a massive social network of coders and hosts nearly all popular open source projects. If you are looking for this type of community, Gitlab may not be for you.
Customer support & reliability. In the time I've used Gitlab, it's not uncommon to experience hours-long periods of downtime without any announcement or indication from the support team when it will be available again.,8,Gitlab offers free hosting of unlimited private repositories. We have saved thousands of dollars over the years by choosing Gitlab for these projects.
On the negative side, Gitlab has deterred us from using a number of ops-related tools we would otherwise have liked to try (Atomist is one example), simply because they did not have pre-built integrations like they did for GitHub.
Using a 3rd-party host for our source control has allowed us to recover projects that would have otherwise been lost due to failed disks on our own systems.,GitHub and Bitbucket,Docker, Kubernetes, Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2)Brian DentinoA powerful and beautiful repository.2018-06-20T19:22:39.666ZI use Gitlab in my company to keep all the projects updated in the cloud, any change or new ticket generated by the clients and developed in a test branch and then passed to quality so that it is tested and later deployed in production. I love this version manager because it provides an easy to use interface and quick to synchronize incidents and milestones in each project.,Wide community with a lot of documentation
Easy access to repository and with SSH security
Easy integration with groups of large and small jobs.,the free version sometimes gets a little slow and has 502 errors

Gitlab has been crucial when working with remote users, offshore or nearshore, in ensuring code quality and stability of our builds. It also integrates with many of our existing tools to create a streamlined pipeline of work for our users providing feedback at every stage of the process.,branching

We also use GitLab to build and deploy our own website. We are a technology focused company writing applications, scripts and tools for ourselves and our customers. All of the code we write gets committed to GitLab repositories. GitLab CI makes it super simple for our code to go from commit to production. We deploy code to Kubernetes and GitLab CI gave us templates to craft our deployments with.,GitLab CI makes it dead simple to add continuous integration to any project.
GitLab's Docker container makes setting up your GitLab server easy.
GitLab provides a free way to host your own private repositories.,If you want to run GitLab yourself, you have to do all of the heavy lifting.
Navigation into projects can be difficult if you are part of a lot of groups.,10,We have been able to roll repository hosting, Docker registries and continuous delivery without taking on the costs of services like GitHub, Docker's public registry or Circle CI.
GitLab's integration with JIRA makes it easier for teams to move quickly controlling ticket flow through commit messages.
Managing GitLab through Docker containers makes updates take minutes instead of hours allowing engineers to focus on customer products.,GitHub and Bitbucket,GitHub, Kubernetes, SlackDavid Long, SPA
