While I'm at it, I may as well offer some other feedback as well: Pros - UI is top notch - Love the built in features (pipelines, CI/CD, docker registry) - Private repos, free stuff Cons - Performance is improving, but still seems a bit slow at times - Pipelines could be a bit faster. The build and test times seem to vary a lot per commit. - Better documentation on pipelines and the .gitlab-ci.yml file. It seems a bit fragmented and scattered over a few documents. - Maybe offer to add a default .gitignore in the repo, and a basic README (like github). Cloning an empty repo makes me sad.

We do have project templates now for a few web frameworks, and the web editor can give you .gitignore templates, but yeah we don't currently have a way of adding these files by default when creating a project.

Thanks for the feedback! As you know, we're constantly improving the performance. There's an issue for CI performance (https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/21624 https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/21624), please add any specific feedback you have there. For pipeline documentation, please consider creating an issue if you have any specific feedback. We'd love to know what we can improve there. We do offer .gitignore templates, so I assume you mean to offer them during project creation. Please see https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/19468 https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/19468 and add any feedback.
