GitLab: Future of DevOps
- Hosting Git Based Source Code Repositories
- Container Registry, Package Registry, Infrastructure Registry and Dependency Proxy
- Service Desk and Issue management on every project
- CI / CD
- As per my requirements currently I don't see any scope of improvement

The power of GitLab in delivering your code quicker
- Code versioning
- Code review and automated build
- Integration with other SDLC tools
- User and group management and access restrictions
- It will be nice to have its own code review features. In the past, we have used Gerrit as a code review tool and integrated it with GitLab.
- Dashboard and custom dashboard. It would be nice if we could create a custom dashboard for things like - code repo, SBOM, and other infrastructure management metrics that can be built custom.
- Ability to run security scans out of the box without having to integrate with other tools, such as scan for secrets, scan for SAST, etc.

Solid and complete tool
- Merge requests
- CI/CD
- Repository tracking
- Searching can be done in multiple places with different behaviors, so it's sometimes confusing
- The merge request changes tab could have more info, like git history on some lines, highlighting partial changes in a single line, to replicate more closely what someone would see in an IDE
October 09, 2023
Great product to manage your codebase !!
- CI/CD
- Difference between previous and present code
- Labels feature
- scheduling in CI/CD
- Editor of GitLab where we can insert tables also for mentioning overview
- At times it's server is down so the changes pushed are not reflected at the same time. It should be faster and quick and changes should be visible at the same time

Pipelines Rock
- Pipelines
- Container Registry
- Git Repository
- Some keywords don't play nice with eachother and can conflict
- YAML parsing can be a bit picky

Enterprise-right source code management setup
- Source control management and real time code collaboration
- Configuration of CI CD pipelines and linking them with PR builds. It is easy to create and configure pipelines that can help the software dev lifecycle with minimal manual input.
- Lack of open source support compared to GitHub
- In browser IDE experience is not fully seamless
- Lack of cross platform support
- Version control.
- CI/CD.
- Code review.
- Access right management.
- UI needs to be improved.

Gitlab: my highest recommendation.
- GitLab excels in managing code versions, allowing easy tracking of changes, branch management, and merging contributions.
- It helps maintain code stability and reliability, saving time and effort in the development or research workflow.
- Powerful code review features, enabling collaboration and feedback among team members.
- Robust project management features, including issue tracking, kanban boards, and milestones.
- GitLab's interface can sometimes be overwhelming, especially for new users. It would be great if they could make it simpler and easier to navigate, so people can get up and running quickly without feeling confused.
- Sometimes struggles with performance when dealing with large repositories or heavy CI/CD workloads.
- While GitLab supports various integrations, it would be fantastic if they expanded the list to include more tools and services.

GitLab - Great addition to our toolset.
- Version history - having the ability to see when things were last changed and by who.
- Integration with our other tools - to help ensure code quality.
- Multiple repos.
- Easy navigation.
- Checking for duplications - we have ended up with two applications being the exact same for a while, and then one gets updated, and one doesn't cause issues.
May 15, 2023
Gitlab - a good foundation for our product teams
- Hosts our code repository
- merge requests
- container registry
- Maybe tighter integration with Jenkins

My preferred DevSecOps platform.
- Continuous integration - GitLab has enabled my team automate all critical steps required to test , build and ensure code security and quality. By automating this process, we limit manual interventions to minimum levels, leading to faster software deployment.
- Unit test reports - This makes it easier and faster to identify faults within our merge requests, without the need to manually check our software delivery pipeline.
- Continuous software security - GitLab enable us integrate security and compliance testing into our software development processes. This helps to promptly identify and manage potential vulnerabilities within software deployments.
- Documentations can be more intuitive and elaborate.
- Integration with third party software programs is inadequate.
- Versioning/Source Control
- Provides a source of truth for Argo runner
- Interface is clean and easy to use
- Git CLI is easy to work with and automate push/pull with GitLab
- Merge/Merge Requests/Approvals are very easy to follow and provide detailed errors when there is an issue
- Navigating between branches within a repo can be difficult
- In browser file editing is somewhat tedious
- Errors relating to CI/CD could be more verbose

Gitlab improve our Continuous Integration.
- Source code management.
- Continuous integration.
- Merge requests flow.
- Users management.
- CI variables management is sometimes hard to use, for example, with File type variables. The scope of each variable is also hard to guess.
- Access Token: there are too many types (Personal, Project, global..), and it is hard to identify the scope and where it comes from once created.
- Runners: auto-scaled runners are for the moment hard to put in place, and monitoring is not easy.
