GitLab Act 2
about.gitlab.com
A letter to our customers and our investors.

Lots of layoffs (“re-evaluating our operational footprint”) and switching to “agentic” processes. Target user is AI.

Anyone still hosting Gitlab?

    Those are all part of the forge, not git.

    • A git migration is easy.
    • Forge migration usually requires some form of migration tool to get all the forge specific stuff (like issues, PR’s and todos).

    The 2 are very different things.

      And what kind of service is gitlab, which we are discussing here, or github which was brought up in the comment, or codeberg?

        They are forges.

        I think the comment of migrating git, was more for smaller and maybe private projects. Not large collaborations. So only the git part, not the forge part.
