Our team did something similar after the problems GitHub had when it came under attack a few weeks ago. We have a team of 20 or so and when GitHub becomes unreliable it becomes a big problem for the team.

Last week we set up the community edition of GitLab on one of our local servers. We then mirror the repository to GitHub. So far so good.

We all like GitHub but after it's recent problems we realised we rely completely on it being up. We couldn't even deploy if it went down.. we still use it for open source things. For our main product it has simply become offsite back up.



GitLab CEO here, good to hear your experience with GitLab is good. What solution do you use to mirror the repository?
