I don't know, Gitlab seems a little too enterprisey for me. For example their documentation is too 'serious' they link to martin fowler's wiki for "feature branch" and wikipedia for "feature driven development". Their gitlab flow has waterflow development like production branch with things going to "production".I do oss for fun, not to go to another job after the first one.
They don't have the cool hipster vibe that github has, github earned their street cred. A copy cat will always be a copy cat.
All these features ppl are asking for are against the ethos of github. Can somone give github props for well implemented git lfs.
sorry gitlab guy who is watching this thread if that was too harsh.
The point is that you state "Gitlab seems a little too enterprisey for me" and then call out Github as the perfect example of how it's supposed to be done. Which is quite peculiar, given that if anything Github its motto is "how businesses build software" - it is an enterprise product they are building their business on. Hence I mockingly stated that the "joke's on you".
It was a natural transition. A Github solely running for "the community" would result in an unsustainable product which can only survive at the scale of Wikipedia-donation cycles.
