Don't get me wrong here
PLi team is the best enigma2 team, It's a fact and all of us are using PLi's enigma2 so nobody could deny such a thing but I think they can't deny that they're using the worst git system among enigma2 teams also
PLi has the best C coders (maybe not best python coders) and the coding part is just great but the way that they're managing sources (sourceforge) is ... what should I say ?
I do not see big difference between github and gitlab.
I have some infrastructure which is based on gitlab already.
And, I do not understand what problem you have. Clone project using uri gitlab is exacly the same as from github.
