Hi all,
this is a short "what do you think about this?" message about gitlab.
Current state of things : we currently use gitlab on their "gold" plan which does include proprietary extensions to the free software gitlab core (those features are scoped labels, multiple assignees, related issues (/duplicates), multiple issues boards, exceptions to protected branches, push rules, merge approvals).
By "just asking", we could also have access to group-level gold features, such as Epics which are like meta-issues to track releases or big feature plans ( https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/group/epics/ ) and Group milestones (instead of having per-project milestones)
The question is simple : should we ?
(Pro : we get access to it; Cons : it's asking to use proprietary features, which is not something we usually do)
