I wonder which startup will chomp off this new sourcefor-- I mean, Github.
I know, totally different companies at this point, but this shift marks me seeing GH as a completely different entity from what it used to be, and I don't look forward to what kind of company they'll become in the future. Kind of disappointing to read about the changes. None of them sound good.
- SOLAR_FIELDS 11y agoGitlab has already surpassed Github in terms of functionality. I've been hard selling it at my place of employ but I work at a large company so Github is already solidly entrenched and will be so for at least awhile.
- sytse 11y agoPlease let us know if we can help convince your company. Email sales@gitlab.com if you need help convincing the higher ups.
- chc4 11y agoI already use GitLab for my personal projects, since I don't care about the networking effects and it's open-source. Since it's still just git, there's nothing stopping people from switching: it has inheritably less lock-in than Twitter or Facebook. GitLab even scrapes issues and other GitHub metainfo if you migrate.
- hoorayimhelping 11y agoThere is one-click repo import functionality that is great also.
- sytse 11y agoThanks! Since Jan 22 we now import repo's, issues, pull/merge requests and wiki's.
- bigbadgoose 11y agoi think that is fine by GH. i mean, it's clear that the $$ is in enterprise, not in selling $9/month plans to hobbyists. someone else will step up to fill the void.
