I maintain the official gitlab packages gitlab, gitlab-gitaly, gitlab-runner, gitlab-shell, gitlab-workhorse and python-gitlab. Out of these, I'll be dropping gitlab, gitlab-gitaly, gitlab-shell and gitlab-workhorse because they are way too much work to maintain and I can't keep up and the result isn't great.
I remember discussions about using gitlab to manage our (future) git repos. If we want to go this route then we need to keep gitlab in our repos.
That is entirely orthogonal because we're using Docker for that currently anyway as we'll use their Enterprise Edition offering which we didn't package.
I probably missed this discussion so I am out of context. But what is the reason we prefer Docker+EE versus using a plain Arch package for GitLab community edition?
