GitLab is right there. And overall provides a better product than GitHub, if nothing else on these two points:

* You can actually have an organisational structure (folders/namespaces), and projects can be moved around with automatic redirects. Also, inheritance of access controls, variables between the namespaces

* GitLabCI is organised in a way that makes supply chain attacks less of a risk. GitHub Actions takes the NPM/JS approach, where every step is an action, one you usually need to get off someone, with shoddy versioning, tons of transient dependencies, etc. In GitLabCI you can have templates, but you don't have to use an external template for every bit. It's shell scripting on top of containers, so you can have custom container images with your stuff, or custom scripts, or templates that bundle it all.

GitLab also limits the size of PRs/MRs, which makes it Unfit for Purpose. :( :( :(

Its a problem they know about, but have no plan to fix before 2027.

I mean, the PR limit is like a million characters. I would also reject a PR of a million characters. That’s bananas.

Not sure about that "million characters", but we've been bitten by it in our production systems. :(

Thus, we're moving off GitLab.

		What use case does a million character PR have?

All of those features are supported by GitHub in some form, e.g: Organizations can now belong to Enterprises.

		tree based directory structure stuff is available on gitlab’s free tier — so are all the permissions inheritance for groups etc. so, while you’re technically right, these features are apparently paywalled heavily on github. ime you get more features on gitlab for the same price (or less). i switched fully two years ago and im not going back.
