GitLab is a web based service that leverages the version control capabilities of Git and adds its own features to support project team collaboration and communication to create, edit and review content before applying it to a master version.
Gitlab provides security controls to manage access to a project and its associated files and content. It also offers project management capabilities to create/track milestones; to track and remediate issues and for team communications.
GitLab is used by project teams to share; modify, verify and eventually merge new or updated content into a master version(s). The master version of a file(s) might contain documentation, computer programs and/or data related to a research project; a software development effort; a student assignment or another scenario involving teams collaborating to create and update content.
This offering is available to faculty, staff and students on the Ann Arbor, Dearborn and Flint campuses.
There is currently no charge for use of the U-M GitLab service.
U-M staff, faculty and students are eligible to use GitLab. Hundreds of U-M individuals are using GitLab today, mostly ITS people.
