GitLab
While “free” Github plans were expanded in 2020 to include some teams features and private repos, news that products like GitHub Copilot (a paid service that uses AI to write code automatically) are trained on the code written by free tier users reinforces concerns that “if you are not paying, you are the product.” As such, GitHub is the most popular central repository of open source code, but GitLab is the most popular platform for enterprise software development. Many larger companies prefer to manage their proprietary code in a platform that gives them more control over where their data is stored and how it is accessed.
Overview
GitLab aims to provide all of the essential DevOps tools inside one platform. Use issues and milestones to track progress and organize around your preferred project management style, from waterfall to kanban boards. Use git to manage source code, and continuous integration tools to verify, package, secure, and release it. Monitoring, governance, and management tools and dashboards round out the offering. Upon launch, Clovyr will create a self-managed instance of of the Enterprise Edition (EE) Free tier. Access to some features like epics and multiple code approvers require seat-based “Premium” or “Ultimate” tier licenses. Clovyr does not currently offer the ability to upgrade from Free to paid tiers automatically via the Clovyr UI, though we would like to offer this in the future.
