How does a private repo encourage members to publish opensource projects?
I am not understanding your premise.
It's not my premise you're having a problem with, it's my wording. The
point is that, EVEN THOUGH it is desirable to publish and/or open source,
SOME people and projects may wish to develop privately, and only make the
code public after. To make up a random example, what if the self-driving
car race guys had wanted to develop new code for driving their car.
Other than that, getting a vps and setting up a git repository would be
trivial for me. Setting up gitlab probably won't be much more difficult.
More ease of use things would not be as easy for me because I am not a good
web developer yet and I still haven't learned django like I wanted to.
I just use a git repo installed in a shared user account on an always on,
always internet connected machine, myself. But for a larger group of
people, and for some users, the sorts of features offered by github,
gitbucket, etc, might be relevant.
