Hello all,
I am pleased to announce that the GitLab consultation working group
<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/GitLab_consultation#Working_Group>has
determined that migrating our code repositories from Gerrit to Gitlab is
the right decision.
For the last 3 weeks the working group has been summarizing the
feedback, working on initial GitLab documentation (work-flows, ACLs,
etc), and drafting other documentation that will be useful during this
migration. While we might not have all the problems figured out, the
group is confidentthat Gitlab is a better solution and that any concerns
can be sufficiently dealt with.
The GitLab consultation wiki page has been updated with the decision
<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/GitLab_consultation#Outcome>and we’ve
created a new landing page for all things GitLab
<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/GitLab>at Wikimedia.
For the immediate future nothing changes. The goal is to have a GitLab
installation ready with a few self-contained repositories moved to it by
this coming June, about 8 months from now. The roadmap
<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/GitLab/Roadmap>, and its evolution, is
on wiki.
Thank you to everyone who engaged with this consultation; I truly
believe that we are in a better position because of all of the open and
constructive dialog.
I want to personally thank the members of the working group by name.
They all did amazing work and made working on this consultation as fun
as it could feasibly be. Thank you all for you great work!
