Hi SAn,
you really want to recommend using the service of a company which has
previously bought another company just to remove them from the
market (gitorious.org) and then make all their users' content
unavailable for almost 1 year without prior warning two months later?
Yes, they just switched it off and referred people to archive.org
who was also not prepared for it and it took 1 year until we had
a read-only mirror of the content previously hosted on gitorious.org.
I've wittnessed that first hand as all my personal projects were hosted
on gitorious.org -- on wikipedia gitlab is trying to make it look more
beautiful than it was, saying that they offered automated migration
to (paid) gitlab.com (wasn't offered to me, I didn't have a gitlab.com
account at the time and wasn't willing to paid nor accepted their
terms&conditions).
Just for the record, neither github.com nor Microsoft actually ever did
any harm to any OpenSource project in such a blunt and malignant way.
Not even Oracle did.
If you just want to run away from github.com (for good reasons), maybe
look here:
