For us it was natural to open the source code, we prefer to work that way. All our source code is publicly viewable and most of it is open source.

- ocdtrekkie 10y agoThis just makes me hope you guys buy more things.
- connorshea 10y agoHa! Any suggestions? ;)

- ferentchak 10y agoI doubt CA will let it go. Now poaching Homeyer might be possible. ;)
- kstenerud 10y agoA cross platform GUI git client that doesn't suck!
- ocdtrekkie 10y agoThis is a pretty great idea. For what I often deal with, the GitHub desktop client is okay (though obviously tied to GitHub), but then I was sad to also realize they don't offer it on Linux. (Maybe they assume Linux nerds don't need GUIs?) I tried Tower when it was in beta for Windows, but the cost is too steep to justify it for me. But it seemed to be a lot more full featured than the GitHub client which isn't good for more than basic commits. And again, no Linux there either. I'd definitely go for a solid, open source git client, and it's obviously very relevant to GitLab's business.
- ylk 10y ago> (though obviously tied to GitHub) You can actually use GitHub Desktop with any repo: https://help.github.com/desktop/faq/articles/do-you-support-hosts-other-than-github/ https://help.github.com/desktop/faq/articles/do-you-support-... (Although it looks like you have to clone it first?)
- j_koreth 10y agoHave you tried smartgit?
- mullsork 10y agoSpend that money porting GitUp.co to multiple platforms instead. The only git GUI I've used that doesn't suck. Might be lacking in features though 8)

- tajen 10y ago> Any suggestions? Seriously, SublimeText, which is $70 closed-source. Less seriously, macOS and iLife. I'd be ok to pay €200/year/user for an OS of that quality, as long as it's open-source.
- connorshea 10y agoI'd personally (not speaking on behalf of the company) love to acquire Sublime, but it's probably too expensive at this point. I'm pretty sad to see Atom eclipse Sublime so much recently, Sublime is so much faster and change is hard :( If only it were open source.
- rabbitfang48 10y ago> All our source code is publicly viewable Not all of it. version.gitlab.com is one of GitLab's closed source IPs.
- connorshea 10y agoYeah, unfortunately that's because we made a mistake, here's the relevant issue if you want more info (PDF because it's a private repo so I can't link directly to it unfortunately): https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByoIqX0IDB5scWpJT0JKTHQtTG8/view?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByoIqX0IDB5scWpJT0JKTHQtTG8... We do want to open source it when we can.
- sytse 10y agoI reopened the issue.
