Glad to see one more service becoming GA on GCP. I'm eagerly waiting for Postgres GA and managed redis, memcache.

I'm working on an open source[1] PaaS platform which makes integrating managed services a breeze and more accessible on GCP[2].

What is GA? The only place I see it in the article is the title, and a google search turned up nothing for me.

General Availability

'are excited to announce that it's leaving beta and is now generally available' - OP

Why should I trust them again? Back then I trusted the bigger guys code.google.com over the little guy GitHub.com and was eventually screwed. Their UI sucked, issues couldn't be imported back to GitHub fully, and they continued to screw their costumers back and front. In the meantime GitHub and redhat openshift had been rocksolid stable services for free without any interruption for 7-9 years for me. Sorry no.

What would you do with this?

idk what would you do with github

I wonder if the equivalent of Github Webhooks is present in Google Cloud Source Repositories, as far as I can see, couldn't find any in the product page.

You can create a trigger and start a build with container builder. Pretty powerful. (https://cloud.google.com/container-builder/docs/creating-bui...).

If you need more powerful CI/CD system on gcp, checkout www.datacol.io ( I am the author, so little biased )

Does anyone see an advantage here over, say, GitLab?

We use this as a secondary remote. Google's security model inside of a project means that you can grant accesses between select services without authentication.

E.g., we keep our main private repo at gihub, but when we want to auto-build a Docker image, push to the Google remote. Google's build trigger has been r/o granted access to the repo, clones the code, builds and publishes a private image.
