Could you provide some sort of status report about what Gitness actually is? According to the Git repo it looks like it started Feb 2, 2014, and Brad Rydzewski did the vast majority of the work on the project (e.g., 100x more than anybody else), and is still involved now. I downloaded it and tried it out (which is VERY easy to do), and the actual software seems to be a Typescript frontend and Go backend, with Monaco for a code editor, and nice diff view. I tried importing a very large repository, and it took a while, but did fully work, and browsing the repo after import was fast. It's Apache-2.0 licensed (thanks!). Was it open source from the beginning?

Gitness brings code hosting and pipeline execution together. It builds on top of the Drone continuous integration system, which Harness acquired. Brad was directly involved, but this time he had the help of 12 full time developers
