While I love that this is being built, am I the only one that feels a bit dirty about the blatant UI ripoff they are doing of GitHub. GitHub is a company that in my opinion can't get enough hacker karma, they have done a brilliant job of innovating time and time again and delivering a brilliant product that makes all our lives better. I can't even bring myself to use open source projects on Google Code, it just isn't…

I don't think they are actually driving any business away from github or I'd be more angry. This seems to fit a niche for people that would like to use github but legally can't put their code online (even in a private repository). It's github for intranets. Agree though, github deserves all the karma we can throw at it.
However, it starts at $5000 per year and the main group amongst people I've heard using GitLab has been companies not willing to pay that $5000 (but who otherwise would probably go with GitHub - that is, they're 'satisficing' rather than choosing GitLab as such).
I run GitLab on my development VPS and use it for all my projects (and everything to do with them, including client interaction via the wall and issues). It's quite brilliant. I nearly decided to hack in a Public Mode myself last year, I'm glad it's finally implemented! This has prompted me into getting back to work on my KanBan SPA, that hooks into GitLabs issues api. I do wish they gave the api a bit more love in t…
What do you use for the webmail/calendaring/contacts?

I like the new look (I think it's more usable than github). In particular I find the "Commits"-tab more intuitive for inspecting code across multiple branches, even though I can't exactly put my finger on the reason. On github I often have to double-check which branch I'm looking at, on GitLab it feels more natural to me.
Basically the only UI-change I would make at this point is on the project-homepage. I'd show those tooltips to the right of the filter-buttons (not above) so they don't cover the other buttons while you hover.
Finally. Resque is such a PITA with Gitlab. Hopefully the upgrade script will work properly now. I have to fix quite a few bits and pieces every upgrade. Top piece of software, though.

They have actually changed the UI from earlier versions, probably to make it look less like github, and it does look very different[1] to github now.

Looks pretty similar to GitHub for me http://gitlab.org/screenshots/
I see nothing questionable in copying a good layout anyway, as long as you don't try to fool the user into thinking you are the product that you are borrowing from. There is no point reinventing an existing wheel unless you can make it significantly rounder.
