Gitlab is a git front end with repository management, graphs, links, goodies, commands to run, and review capabilities similar in feel to a self hosted github.

Debian is running its own Instance of Gitlab under https://salsa.debian.org, which is not based on the packaged version.

Gitlab 8.13.11 is available in stretch, but it is not receiving any security updates. So it is recommend to update to newer versions from unstable or stretch-backports.

# apt-get install gitlab

Unstable

Gitlab 11.5.4 is available in unstable (no open security issues).

Stretch Backports

Gitlab 10.8.7 is waiting in backports-NEW (still affected by some security issues).
