Jonathan M. Hethey has been writing code since the age of 14 and has actively participated in shaping and experimenting with the IT systems around him. After finishing his finals and an apprenticeship as an IT supporter, he studied Multimedia Design in Kolding, Denmark, followed by studies of Web Development in Odense, Denmark.
Besides his studies, he has been working on several web projectsboth on a freelance basis and in his company which was founded in 2011.
Because programming and working in teams efficiently are keys to success in a rapidly changing industry, whether we are speaking of app development or creating beautiful web experiences, he quickly became a fan of Git, and started looking for great implementations of it on the server-side that would allow newcomers to pick it up quicker and extend it with additional functionality and usability.
I would like to thank the open source community and, of course, especially the creators of GitLab for their great work. Secondly, I would thank the team of and around Linus Torvalds, who created Git in the first place. Also, Git and GitLab are only my personal favorite flavors, there are other projects doing a fantastic job out there! Last, but not least, I have to thank everybody around me who have supported me while I was writing this book!
Jeroen van Baarsen works as a Ruby developer at Mobillion. He started working as a developer in the PHP world. After working for seven years as a PHP developer, he made the switch to become a Ruby developer.
He first used Version 4.0 of GitLab and has upgraded to every version ever since.
Mobillion is a company that specializes in helping charity organizations raise funds for their campaigns. They offer a social fund raising platform to do so.
Eric Pidoux has a degree in Computer Science from Miage Aix-Marseille and is currently working as the Lead Web Developer in Lausanne (Switzerland), especially on Symfony2 framework (six years into PHP with four years into Symfony). Passionate about IT, he developed a lot of websites, including mobile apps using Sencha Touch, and managed them with GitLab.

First, we will take a look at what GitLab can do for us, and later we will see how we can install it on a server and configure it to match our needs.
The next step is to take a close look at the web interface, and then we will learn how to handle permissions and teams, document our code, track issues, and show example workflows.
Lastly, we will learn how to perform maintenance for our installation, including the creation of backups and upgrading to the most recent version. We will also cover getting in touch with the community and developers on the respective channels.
, Kickstarting with GitLab , covers a short introduction of GitLab, its key features, and origin of the project.
, Installation , covers the preparation of the environment and installation of the dependencies and GitLab itself on a Linux box.
, Configuring GitLab , explains the setting up of GitLab's configuration and making it match our needs in terms of security; we will also learn what setting can be changed from where.
, Roles and Permissions , covers exploring of the web interface. We will also learn how to use roles inside GitLab to distribute power, access restrictions, and set up teams that work nicely.
, Issues and Wikis , covers the documentation of software and its development through built-in wikis. Use of issue tracking inside GitLab and assigning issues to developers will also be covered in this chapter.
