Currently work in progress
====== GitLab server ======
Within X2Go we are running a GitLab server.
GitLab is a DevOps tool that not only include git repositories, but also issue tracking, wiki, pull requests and continuous integration & delivery (CI/CD). This product is also used in companies such as NASA, CERN, GNOME and SpaceX.
We are using the open-source (FOSS) version of GitLab, which include most features we need out-of-the-box.
**URL:** [[https://gitlab.x2go.org/]]
**Status:** Ready for acceptance testing
