I agree we should give attribution here and created https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/merge_requests/3546 https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/merge_requests/3546 to do so. Edit: this was merged.

This is why I like GitLab! Thanks for doing this :) You're not only productive at shipping quality features but also listening to people using your product! This makes me even happier to be using it at work :)

  Thank you for your kind words. Two funny things: 1. We're now at Git Merge http://git-merge.com/ http://git-merge.com/ and I'm looking forward to presenting at 4pm Eastern. 2. I said it was merged but Douwe used our Merge when build succeeds. A HN reader commented about a mistake and I was able to fix it in https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/commit/79d6513f360d7d305b4276777973dfd991c347f8 https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/commit/79d6513f360d7... Thanks Greg!

@dang I'm sorry for this. Please understand I was inebriated when I posted this comment, but I will always appreciate your work and if you ban me for the following comment, I understand. ------------------------------------------------- syste - I love you man. You are an amazing CEO. Your company does great work and has a great product. I always become so happy when I see you actively responding to the comments here. You are a role model CEO. Something so many companies overlook is actually listening to their users and taking their feedback seriously. I love you man, if you wrote an autobiography I would buy it. Congratulations to you and your team.

  Thanks! Glad to know if I write something about myself it will have a minimum of two buyers (my mom is very supportive too). I like to write about business stuff most. Any merge requests on our handbook https://about.gitlab.com/handbook https://about.gitlab.com/handbook and strategy https://about.gitlab.com/strategy https://about.gitlab.com/strategy are appreciated.

    styse, you are a great motivation for the product company I run. I checked your strategy page and you are planning to integrate with NetSuite. Why not something open source for finance? ERPNext? disclaimer: I am the founder of erpnext

      Thanks for your kind words. ERPNext looks cool. We try to use open source where we can although we also try to use boring solutions. In this case we already completed the NetSuite implementation so we're not in the market at the moment. BTW I'm not sure ERPNext is ideal for our use case, we would need multi-company consolidation.

The lines with soft line breaks (double spaces at the end) appear to have had their trailing whitespace trimmed, which ends up looking like: Roses are red Violets are blue Sugar is sweet rather than: Roses are red Violets are blue Sugar is sweet

  Sorry, I'm committing from The Git Merge conference and didn't have the time. It should render OK. Feel free to submit a merge request to fix it.
