PHB,
I don't know what happened, or whether it was GitLab or GitHub.
I do know that it was at least five years ago, right?
I would appreciate some summary of what went wrong?
Was it really the tool? Was it people using the tool wrong?
Were they fighting the tool?
Were they disagreeing (maybe even implicitely) on how to use the tool?
I'm asking this to understand what a better tool would actually do.
