GitLab 5.0 Release

Yesterday, that is, March 22, the release of version 5 of GitLab was released. GitLab is a great analogue to such products as GitHub, Bitbucket. However, it is installed on your personal server and is completely controlled by you. This is a great solution for software companies, web studios or just for those who want to have their own git repository.



What's new in version 5.0? For details, I ask for Cat


Innovations:

• import repositories
  
  
• wiki pages are now stored in the git repository using the gollum library
• Added the ability to publish additional descriptions of groups, teams and projects
• added the ability to integrate with external error tracking systems

Dependency Changes:

• Gitolite replaced by gitlab-shell. Gitolite was used to distribute access rights to repositories, the change allows you to use a separate database of virtual users with access to repositories by SSH key without creating a system account.

Security Changes:

• use of secure links for attachments;
• Update required libraries;
• improved protection against XSS attacks.

Well, a few screenshots in the end:
