Before you start setting up emacs's private GitLab instance for CI, I should explain something. GitLab is built in 2 flavours, CE and EE: - GitLab CE is Free Software, and licensed under MIT Expat License. - GitLab EE is built on top of GitLab CE, it includes extra features that are destined for enterprise users. GitLab EE has a proprietary license. https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/blob/master/LICENSE The feature to mirror a repo, from Savannah to GitLab, is an EE feature. So you cannot use that feature without a subscription. (see https://about.gitlab.com/products/). So to use GitLab CI, there are a few options: - Set up a private GitLab EE instance with a paid subscription => I doubt GNU/FSF would agree with this - Set up a private GitLab CE instance and build some custom scripts to /manually/ sync the repo from Savannah to GitLab. - Keep using GitLab.com (the SaaS solution GitLab provides, which is running GitLab EE). - Instead of the savannah repo, use the GitLab repo as the main one. => I don't see this happen in the near future. -- Toon
