GitLab is doing this. They currently have: - Issue tracking (jira) - Issue kanban (trello) - Git repository - Chat, via bundled Mattermost (gitter/slack) - CI (jenkins) - Docker registry Plus, they're planning on adding even more features. We have a self-hosted instance at work and I use it for pretty much everything other than email and actually writing code.

Thanks, this is exactly what we're doing. The complete scope is detailed on https://about.gitlab.com/direction/#scope https://about.gitlab.com/direction/#scope By the way, we see Mattermost as an alternative for Slack but not for Gitter. One is team chat and the other is 'project' chat with different requirements.

  This is excellent to hear all this awesome work being done by gitLab. I was even more impressed by them recently when they admitted the production data loss and restore (such humility is rare these days). one wonders why they shouldn't rebrand and give a more apt name, at the outset you wont know they offer so much

    The name doesn't help with that but I think renaming it would be a huge time sink for our customers, users, and ourselves.

  Mattermost is the one thing listed above that I don't use. What do you see as the differences between team and project chat? I've always seen Gitter as chat with one room per repo; on the other hand, I've also never had a team chat.

    Project chat is easier to enter. Anyone can join.

    We see Gitter as more of a place than a product. It's a community (single network) where anyone can participate in just about anything. It's about connecting developers around the world to one another through the medium of chat. Sure it can do similar things to Slack/MatterMost, but that's not the intention of what we're trying to do with it.
