Gitlab also can be run in your own server. It actually has an enterprise and an open source version. We use the open source one for a couple of years and it is really great - I recommend it with all my heart. It has great instructions for i

Couldn't agree more! I was like 10 years old in the 90's ( before Windows 95 on 1995) when all good games run on DOS. I had became an expert on how to edit config.sys and autoexec.bat to enable EMS or XMS or save a few KB off the
