GitHub is playing catch-up with GitLab. Interesting.

#102I'd really like it if the Pull Requests page would denote which PRs I've already approved. That is one thing I really liked from Bitbucket, it makes it easy to skip over what I've already approved. It would become slightly more complex though, because then you'd probably want to see something for PRs you've approved but had subsequent changes on.

#103Some nice improvements here. It appears, though, that Projects suffer from the same problem we've had with Issues: they are limited to one repo. I know there are some tools to manage Issues across repos, but for the most part, the tools seem to assume you work on only one repo, or that milestones only affect a single repo. I would love to see projects/milestones become more capable when dealing with cross-repo issues…
Phabricator has the right approach here.
Issues and projects are global and not bound to a single repository. In my experience, this is the only approach that works in a company. JIRA does the same thing.
It's the closest to a fully open source Atlassian suite that you get. Phabricator has code review, repository hosting, project management and even a CI tool.

#105The review stuff is semi similar to what I requested GitLab do and I'm surprised it's taken so long for anyone to really do it. It's a great workflow. I'm still not convinced about keeping all of your project's management in the version control system (I mean I prefer issues in there but the rest seems...wrong to me for whatever biased reason I have). Overall looks good! When does Enterprise get these features? :)
Phabricator and Gerrit had this for ages!

#106Finally, Github getting some Love! Can't wait to switch to Projects and wave Goodbye Jira. I'm a happy dev today.
Take a look at Phabricator's project management and work board, too!

Codetree [1] addresses the multi-repo issues problem you mention, we roll up as many repos as you want under one 'project' which you can view in either table or kanban board style.
We also add a host of project management functionality on top of GitHub issues like advanced filtering/sorting, dependency tracking, and the ability to setup your own dev/release workflow.

#109Earlier quoted context omitted.
It looks like enforcing 2fa in an org (finally!) means anyone who doesn't have 2fa will be booted out (included whoever may be paying for it at the time) with an email explaining why. I'm afraid to tick the box because of this. :o/
Contact everyone, tell them they have a week, then tick the box. If they didn't do it within the week it's either not important to them or they'll add it right quick after you tick the box.
You're right, and I'll be sending out the emails tomorrow. Thanks!

> I don't really quite understand all the love of GitLab - Open Source - Free private repos - Free self-host (edit to add "Free") - Everything in one spot (repos, ci, review, coding environment, etc...)
It's only kind of open source, and only partly. They call it open core, so saying open source outright is a bit misleading. The review feature is very new in GL, and that plus all of the things you are mentioning within "everything in one spot" is available in this update (except maybe the coding env, not sure what that means anyway), if you've read the announcement. Github also has self hosting.
> It's only kind of open source, and only partly
CE is a very large subset of EE. But yeah, maybe "open core" is a better term.

I assume you meant Github's announced features? Yeah, I think they're great.

Costs $, Gitlab has free self hosting (updated parent comment)
