Thought about migrating to #gitlab. Went to their website. The first thing I am greeted with is "With native AI at every step.".
I abandoned the idea.
AI crap everywhere.

Die @meissa erklärt und zeigt mal, was bei #forgejo in Sachen #federation schon so alles geht. Voll spannend für die Zukunft

My #bash2gitlab tool is starting to stabilize, ready to use #gitlab fans!

You ever want to do this?

```yml
include:
- project: 'myorg/ci-templates'
file: '/script.sh'
```
Well you can't. It has to be yaml. Until now! Compile your bash & yaml to yaml. Also works for python and other scripting languages.

[Перевод] Анализируем исходный код с помощью GitLab

Своевременное выявление уязвимостей в коде является одной из важнейших задач конвейера CI/CD, ведь чем раньше мы обнаружим ошибку в коде, тем дешевле нам обойдется ее исправление. Для решения этой задачи существует множество различных решений. Но если мы используем конвейер CI/CD то нам необходимо интегрировать наш анализатор в этот процесс. Однако, в GitLab имеется своя функциональность для анализа исходного кода. В этой статье мы настроим GitLab SAST для автоматического анализа исходного кода на наличие уязвимостей.

GitLab 18.3 released with Duo Agent Platform in Visual Studio (Beta) and Embedded views
https://about.gitlab.com/releases/2025/08/21/gitlab-18-3-released/
#gitlab #gitlabrelease

In einem #Gitlab kann ich in der Historie bei einem File sehen was sich verändert hat und jede Aktualisierung anschauen.

Aber kann ich auch sagen ich möchte eine hübsche Darstellung nebeneinander was sich in welcher Version geändert hat? Damit ich nicht jede Datei einzeln aufrufen und vergleichen muss?

Ich hätte gerne einen (übersichtlichen) chronologischen Abriss über die Änderungen in einer Datei.

Ist das eine zielführende Fragestellung oder eher seltsam und unpraktikabel?

Juhu, 2 Commits fürs Update, 18 Commits für GitLab/Testing/Infrastruktur: https://gitlab.com/mhuber84/randomizer/-/compare/3.5.0...main?from_project_id=18749124

Und das Release ins TER funktioniert immer noch nicht wegen irgendeinem Timeout. Aber das ist mir jetzt egal, dann mach ich das halt von Hand.

So, I'm just trying to get an account on #gitlab.com in order to file a feature request for Inkscape, and they apparently insist on my full name, and on me having to solve some silly riddle through a very tedious interface (I bet bots don't get bored doing that!), .... and after verifying my mail address, they insist on giving them my phone number, and solving a second one of those stupid riddles?
"for security reasons". Whose security?

Look, I kind of get if you're trying to keep bots out but ... I barely know you, you're not getting my phone number. Especially not if the "send me spam and promotions" box was ticked by default (not okay in the EU!)

There's of course an alternative to providing a phone number: Giving them a credit card number.

Yeah, no

GitLab Patch Release: 18.2.4
https://about.gitlab.com/releases/2025/08/18/gitlab-18-2-4-released/
#gitlab #gitlabrelease

Are you contributing to Debian? Check out my best practices for submitting and reviewing Merge Request on Salsa, #Debian's #GitLab instance.

I have now also converted my remaining personal open source Git repositories (those which we don't already host at the institute's #Gitlab instance and which are not forked from or contribution to others) from #Github to #codeberg https://codeberg.org/rmayr

Github was a great improvement to make open source contributions and coordination easier, and it's a shame that the current AI hype drives everything into a single, non-sustainable niche direction... While Github is dependent on Microsoft AI stuff, my repositories are archived and will not see any further changes - I might even delete them altogether.

"Patches sent to distribution lists remains the only widely used decentralized code review framework. RFC2822-conformant (“email”) messages adhere to an established standard that ensures high level of interoperability between systems, and it remains one of the remaining few truly decentralized communication platforms."

This!
