  My vote is also still for a GitLab instance, since it leaves
  
  possibilities open for both personal and club-wide projects wherever
  
  programming is necessary (which is, of course, nearly everywhere).
  
  
  My apologies for the radio silence on my end; I've been in China since
  
  the beginning of May and haven't had consistent access to email.
  
  
  Hope everybody's summer is going well!

  Might I suggest something like Gogs (https://gogs.io/) instead of Gitlab?
  
  In my experience the performance/hardware requirements of Gitlab in
  
  comparison is night and day.
  
  
  Sorry, I just needed to get that out.

  My previous employer tried very hard to use GitLab and had to switch to
  
  GitHub because GitLab's performance just wasn't there.

  since ncsu has GitHub already then it would just be a redundant service to
  
  have gitlab or gogs.

  Ah, I had not thought of that! Well, a hosted git service was the only
  
  idea I had, unfortunately.
