For academics, it take a few minutes to get a github academic account. For gitlab you have to write justifications and wait and wait, to maybe get it...

  Yep, our university has GH Enterprise and refuses to “procure” (as it requires the central body to agree to the ToS) free Gitlab for academia as “another” git solution. Our project team on Gitlab cannot get into that program for academics because they only let one application per institution. I understand each side but still don’t see how we can solve this problem. Would love to find a way!

    Update: seems like Gitlab removed the requirement of having one application per institution from https://about.gitlab.com/solutions/education/join/ https://about.gitlab.com/solutions/education/join/, I just applied again.
