Hello,

after some more months of steady work i'm calling for testers for GitLab 
as port.

You can track the progress in its PR:
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=202468

Since today it is possible to install, configure and use GitLab 8.5.0. :)

If you are interested in testing you can use the patch from the PR and 
apply it against /usr/ports.

If you want to stay up to date (which is advised) you should use my 
personal ports-tree for this project:

$ git clone https://github.com/t-zuehlsdorff/freebsd-ports.git
$ git checkout gitlab

In both cases you should install it with:
# cd /usr/ports/www/gitlab
# make install

After this follow the documentation:
https://github.com/t-zuehlsdorff/gitlabhq/blob/8-5-docu/doc/install/installation-freebsd.md

GitLab is huge. 369 packages are needed to get it run and there are many 
functions to check. So please will free to test like you want and give 
feedback. I will try to incorporate everything.

Also the patch contains some updates of ports and some new ports. Feel 
free to review them also.

Greetings,
Torsten
