Long time I haven't spoken on the list, but wanted to chime in with experiences providing VCS services for 15+ years (CVS, SVN, Git[custom,gitosis,gitolite,gitlab]).
Most of your desired features aren't in the 'minimal' goal of Gitolite, as you've noted, and the nits with Gitolite (human to add keys) are certainly a pain for you. Despite my personal preferences for Gitolite, it probably needs to be replaced. Running your own fully-featured hosting solution from scratch is MUCH more work than using upstream-provided containers. This goes for both Gitlab & Phabriactor. I'd recommend GitlabCE using the upstream containers, either Docker or K8s: https://hub.docker.com/r/gitlab/gitlab-ce/ https://docs.gitlab.com/ce/install/kubernetes/ Could you elaborate on your comment about GitLab branch permissions? > We don't have as much control over branch permissions as gitolite > offers. Aside from some fancy VREFs in Gitolite, I've been able to do all of my permissions identically in GitLabCE. Other hosting solution candidates I'd like to suggest: Gerrit -- Robin Hugh Johnson SITKA: Sysadmin Phone: 1-855-383-5761 ext 1010 GnuPG FP : 11ACBA4F 4778E3F6 E4EDF38E B27B944E 34884E85
