Make sure you look at Phabricator, too. It's great and the dev team is highly professional.
Has a Trello-like work board, good project management and - most importantly - a sane and highly optimized workflow that works very well for a number of large companies and open source projects.
I'll just link to another comment of mine: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13939608 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13939608
Happy to answer any questions! (give it a few hours though)
- chetanahuja 10y agoOne of the biggest weaknesses of gitlab, that becomes glaring as you add more and more projects, is that a code repository and a project are considered one and the same thing. It's quite common to want two or more separate repositories for an actual development project (e.g. frontend/backend or client/server etc.). Of course gitlab's problems arise from the fact that their whole reason for existence is being an open-source copy of github. (And github is designed first and foremost as a public facing opensource management tool... which forces a lot of their product design choices). Does phabricator work on a different paradigm that's more conducive as an internal tool to manage dev projects for a single organization?
- prh8 10y agoBTW, Gitlab is working on big improvements to organization wide features. This was discussed on here after their big release last month.
- lima 10y agoYes, that's exactly how Phabricator works. Issues, project management and repositories are fully decoupled. Instead of copying GitHub with all its flaws, Phabricator was built from scratch for the enterprise usecase.
