<p>GitLab is a web-based Git repository manager with many
features, used by more than 100.000 organizations, including NASA
and Alibaba. It also is a very long-standing entry on the
&quot;Wanted Ports&quot; list on the &os; Wiki.</p>
<p>In the last month there was steady progress, which finally
resulted in the PR for adding the new port. In addition to the
many dependencies &a.pgollucci; is working on, there was already a
large amount of work done. In addition to many new or updated
rubygems, Rails 4.1 was resurrected. Many committers were
involved in the process and guided us through the various problems
and pitfalls.</p>
<p>Because of the number of dependencies &mdash; we nearly hit
100 &mdash; making progress takes some time. In the meantime,
there is already a new major version of GitLab released, which
requires even more dependencies and updates. Work on this version
is already in progress, but the first goal is to get the latest
stable version from the 7.14 branch into the ports tree.
