Re: Proposal to deploy GitLab on gnome.org
At the risk of reopening this debate, here's an interesting LWN article about why Debian has rejected a proposed move to GitLab: https://lwn.net/SubscriberLink/724986/c26a7fab6ab5981b/ (For those unfamiliar with LWN, the subscriber link is just to allow you to bypass the paywall.) It looks like the primary concern was the open core business model and enterprise features missing from the community edition. I think we had some rough consensus on this list that the primary missing enterprise feature we need in the open source edition is rebase-style merge requests. Was there anything else?

It looks like related issues are an EE feature, at least for now:
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/4058
Although personally this bothers me a lot less than forced merge commits,
assuming that the suggested workaround of using free-form comments ("This
depends on the stuff in #12345") works well enough. I hope that subscribers
to an issue will receive a notification when a mentioned issue is closed,
but if not and I'll have to manually subscribe to related issues where
necessary, then that's an annoyance I can live with ...
