Any documentation / talks / videos about the gitlab + kubernetes integration ? Thanks for the awesome product. At work we switched to gitlab for new projects and loving.

Thanks for switching to GitLab, glad to hear you're loving it! :D We have this demo from our most recent summit where we put together an entire GitLab instance in ~20 minutes on a Kubernetes cluster, though I'm not sure that's exactly what you want? https://about.gitlab.com/2017/01/23/video-tutorial-idea-to-p... We also have some documentation on integrating with Kubernetes here: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/proje…

The integration with Kubernetes looks pretty cool so far. Is there any consideration being given to integrating with Docker Swarm Mode?

With the focus on performance, is there any chance we could get pagination on the deploy keys page? Our company is self hosting the CE version and we currently have 339 deployment keys. Every time we need to load the deployment keys page, it takes upwards of 20s. We could probably organize things differently and cut that down, but that would be a significant restructure and time investment for what would essentially…

I'm afraid it gets a little worse. In an attempt to simplify some of the settings pages, deploy keys were moved onto the repository settings page. https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/29667 We need to do something about this very soon, so please keep an eye on that issue. We're going to be doing some more work on settings pages, hopefully in 9.2 and make them a lot better. https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitl…

So they are on the main Project Settings page as of 9.0? If that's the case, we will avoid upgrading until that is changed because that page will become fairly unusable in our case, both in terms of speed and general UX because our Deploy Keys page is currently 20,777px tall. That is a lot of scrolling to have to deal with.

I will subscribe to those issues and hopefully it will improve. As of now, though, that is a complete non-starter for us.

I'm surprised, impressed, and frankly amused in that you can sign into gitlab.com with your github account.

They know their audience, I suppose.

Anyway it makes importing projects easier.

The performance improvements are very noticeable : general page load times, pushing code to gitlab is as fast as github now and the commit messages load insanely fast, compared to a few months ago where loading commit messages in the UI used to take at least a couple of seconds. I don't follow gitlab development too closely, but they seem to have focused a lot on improving cache performance. But one change that I did…

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Is Sublime really an editor of choice if speed comes first?

Well, compared to Atom, yes. Two somewhat similar tools with trade offs between them, one of them being speed.

Note that Atom is written in Javascript, so the run time is extraordinarily CPU heavy. Even though many Electron (Javascript desktop framework) apps may have snappy UIs, they're typically even worse than Java for CPU (battery life, etc).

I am having problem with de CI/CD after update:

``` Running with gitlab-ci-multi-runner 9.0.0[...] Cloning repository... Cloning into '/builds/xxxxxxx'... warning: You appear to have cloned an empty repository. Checking out xxxxxxx as master... fatal: reference is not a tree: xxxxxx ```

how is the CD in Gitlab complete without this issue being complete ( https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/28497 ) - is there any alternative if i want to use "gitlab.com" for hosting my code ?

Most of CD including deployments already works for private projects, it is only the auto deploy https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/autodeploy/index.html that doesn't work yet. We would all like to see auto deploy working with private projects and it is scheduled for 9.1

If you don't want to use GitLab.com to host your code you can install GitLab yourself or use the mirroring function in GitLab to deploy code hosted elsewhere.
