I'm impressed how far GitLab has come in a short amount of time. It's a pretty well-designed platform, when it comes down to it. I think the Vue-based user interface and the data model are probably the cornerstones of it, and using Ruby on the backend just helps them iterate quickly. Ruby also seems to be getting more robust [1]. Their CI/CD platform is really a great approach, emphasizing the GitLab Worker as a portable CI runner that communicates through the API. For resource-intensive apps it helps to not have the number and size of CI workers be limited by a SaaS plan like they tend to be with other CI/CD platforms.

This tweet is, unsurprisingly, too light on details. I wonder what the plus for Xcode is here? I'm sure it already had Git integration. Is Xcode getting project, issue, merge-request etc. management support? And they chose to start that with (or exclusively base it on) GitLab?

Maybe they had a slide for GitHub and they deleted it in light of the Microsoft announcement. Apple is one of very few companies secretive enough to be able to do something like that.

It supports GitHub, BitBucket and GitLab.

It’s not very useful though. It just lets you clone repos without using a shell. Kind of pointless.

Why highlight GitLab and not Bitbucket, then? Is someone else cozying up to Atlassian?

The slide where it was announced showed both GitLab and Bitbucket. GitHub was already there since Xcode 9 from last June.

They both were highlighted equally in the State of the Union Keynote.
