Gitlab Inc, has extended funding for another 20 days (with first 60 days completed and second round of 20 days already in progress, 100 days in total) so I can complete gitlab backporting to jessie. I have got access to backports and will start uploading the dependencies now. Here is the sequential list of dependencies https://gitlab.com/debian-ruby/backportr/blob/master/lib/gitlab_sequential.txt Let me know if any of you would like to join this effort. https://gitlab.com/debian-ruby/backportr/blob/master/lib/gitlab_notes.txt has documented manual handling required in the backports. It would be great if you can help fixing the test failures on jessie. I'm planning to disable tests if a reasonable effort is not enough to fix it. > The last major issue we have to fix is > https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=814871 Any help in > debugging and fixing this is welcome. > > I think once this bug is fixed, we can start working on a gitlab > instance for debian, finally! > last important blocker for gitlab.debian.net https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=820505
