I love GitLab, and yeah the install isn't hard. But have you ever tried updating it? Impossible as far as I've tried. Breaks stuff every time :(

I upgrade regularly, typically two weeks after release of a new version (except when there are security fixes, like recently).

It could (and should) be more streamlined, I admit, but using diff et al. on the two affected configuration files makes the process fast. One could do it by hand w/o issues, but I wouldn't like it.
