any more info? Are we going invest into packaging it?
Please make us 100% confident we are not going to be locked-in. If we
aren't able to package it reasonably well, it means that we have no option
to decide to self-host GitLab in future.
Self-hosting was not desired. You could, if you are trusting
curl
https://packages.gitlab.com/install/repositories/gitlab/gitlab-ee/script....
| sudo bash
(taken from
https://about.gitlab.com/install/#centos-8 )
You can also export "most of your data" from hosted solutions, see
https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/
(there is an faq "Can I export my data")
The link is
https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/settings/import_export.html
where it says:
The following items will NOT be exported:
- Build traces and artifacts
- Container registry images
- CI variables
- Webhooks
- Any encrypted tokens
- Merge Request Approvers
- Push Rules
- Awards
