Although of course Gitlab can be self-hosted, it doesn't make much sense
for a project with only one repo, since Gitlab is objectively "bloated"
compared to cgit.

Also I don't want to police or anything, but can you please not "top
post", as in can you reply below the quote, it really improves the
readability, since you can figure out what the person is replying to,
without having to read through the quoted text below the reply.
