GitLab provides tracking from planning to creation to assist developers in automating the entire DevOps lifecycle and achieving the best results possible. The primary advantage of using GitLab is that it allows all team members to collaborate at all stages of the project. It is a complete DevOps platform that enables professionals to perform all the tasks in a project-from project planning and source code management to monitoring and security. GitLab is a web-based Git repository that provides free open and private repositories, issue-following capabilities, and wikis.
