Gitlab is not a 'github replacement' to run public projects, it's sole focus is private repositories on your own server.

- 1qaz2wsx3edc 14y agoSo it's more of a `github enterprise replacement`, got it.
- rsobers 14y agoStill not quite right. Github enterprise requires that you pay Github to license the software and provide support. Gitlab is free and open source -- you can clone Gitlab and start doing git project hosting without paying or contacting anyone. (NB: I have no involvement with Gitlab.)
- cdcarter 14y agoI think it would still qualify as a replacement, just an open one.
- mlinksva 14y agoAkin to gitorious' rationale for not including an issue tracker. It is also targeting in-house development (and in gitorious' case, assuming will need to integrate with existing issue systems eg https://issues.gitorious.org/issues/41#note-11 https://issues.gitorious.org/issues/41#note-11 says along those lines). Odd result is that Github is significantly easier to deal with for an open source project than are its open source alternatives.
