[tech] GitLab instance

[John Hodge]

Hello everyone!

Since Github is under a little... strain lately 
(https://github.com/blog/1981-large-scale-ddos-attack-on-github-com) I 
decided to do some looking into a way of running that sort of service 
ourselves.

The result is GitLab, it's pretty much the same concept as github, but 
is avaiable to run for yourself. I've configured it to only allow logins 
using LDAP, so all members can use it (and, sorry, no randoms... unless 
added by wheel), and it's storing the repos on /services, so they have 
the same SLA as all UCC data.

Feel free to try it out, and forward all complaints to mee/wheel (where 
we will either fix the problem, or store the message /dev/null)
