I've been running GitLab self-hosted since December and find it a fine
alternative.

Their installation instructions try hard to scare you away from
self-hosting and installation from source, but I think that's more to
keep non-sysadmins from shooting themselves in the foot than it is to do
with inherent complexity.

A guix package[1] of course would be the bee's knees. :)

GitLab's OAuth2 authentication and GitHub (and other) import facilities
ease integration with those clinging to their GitHub or other 'social'
accounts.

[1] I've been dying to make one as I'm stuck at GitLab 8.14 due to
version dependencies in 8.15+ that aren't in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.  My
servers run Ubuntu LTS, with Guix for out-of-distro packages.  I lack
the time and guixperience to do this right now but will gladly share
notes and help out if someone takes this on.
