Gitlab (https://code.oakland.edu) is a source code management and collaboration software that is hosted and operated by Oakland University Technology Services (UTS).
This resource is only available on-campus and not available to computers outside of the Oakland University network. There are many other resources available online as a cloud-based solution, although Gitlab should be considered if you have concerns over intellectual property and security.
Oakland University currently runs the Community Edition of Gitlab with available documentation at http://doc.gitlab.com/ce/.
