BitBucket vs. GitLab.com

I love Gitlab but the biggest issue I have with it is that I'm a major version behind and on the minor version of .8 or soemething.

For me to migrate I'll have to upgrade to the minor versions until I get to the latest. Thats a huge pain. Is there any other way?

You can upgrade straight to the latest version. Send us a message at support at gitlab dot com and we can double check it for you.

Whether you can upgrade depends on the major version your are on now (newer versions can be upgraded more easily), as Job said, we're happy to check for you.

You should be able to go straight to the latest version, see https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/master/doc/upda...

This is going to sound more judgmental than I mean it, please don't take it that way.

What happened that you go so far behind in versions?

The upgrades have been a pain to do, and I just don't keep up with it.
