Still using redmine + gitolite here but have been watching Gitlab for a while, in fact I tried it yesterday and it's still quite resource hungry and slow(using DO's default installation with 1GB memory). Redmine+Gitolite has nearly everything I need but Gitlab's code view interface is better. Redmine's backend seems running more efficiently but its interface is not modern enough at this point, especially on how to re…

gitlabs minimum requirements are 2G of ram (although that's for 100 people).

Without trying to appear as if I'm defending gitlab itself, I've always been of the notion of "Do it right and then do it fast".

This is how postgresql is starting to beat the ever-loving crap out of mysql now, it used to be the slow option, now it's the one that wont eat your baby.

When I go to github, there's a search bar at the top to search for the public repo I'm looking for. I can't find the search feature at gitlab.com. How do I search for users or public repos of interest at gitlab?

Use explore to search for interesting projects (and the people that have them in their namespace): https://gitlab.com/explore

Press `s` to search for anything. However we only support search for people in places where you immediately need them, like when adding to a project.

I created a feature proposal to also search through people: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/13672

Ok. I followed the Explore link, but I cannot find the search field on that page. It seems to only allow me to browse by trending/most-stars/all. Hitting 's' key on my keyboard doesn't seem to change the page in any way. Am I missing the search field?

(Note, this is using Firefox/Iceweasel 44.0.)

This comment is not meant to be the main judgment on what is otherwise an interesting update, but:

> To focus on your content

shows a screenshot with extremely long text lines that are far harder to read than than when the sidebar thing helps keep the lines to a still-too-long-but-not-as-bad length. How does nobody at GitLab realize that you need some max-width or a container or something to keep text line length comfortably readable‽

(the same can be said for Hacker News, but everyone seems to know that it's ugly already)

I'm Brazilian and needed a few seconds to understand what they meant. I kept reading it like to-do(s). In the end they're just playing with the word:
