not sure where you are coming from. did you know that gitlab is vastly more open source than github?

  Ironically, I think Gitlab's popularity comes from the fact that it allowed free private repos, gaining more popularity in "closed source" teams. (At least, that's why I first used Gitlab)

    We have community edition deployed to AWS which is pretty neat. Not only do we have private repos, but the entire deployment is private and behind a firewall. Github would require you to sign up for an enterprise hosted account and pay +$$$s. For the project we have at work that would be a hard, hard sell - without Gitlab we'd be a bit screwed for modern Git workflow with easy code reviews and all the other great stuff Github pioneered.

However, that's an old blog-post, today GitLab is the only single product for the complete DevOps lifecycle.
