Deploying GitLab

When building a GitOps pipeline, one of the most important components is a Git repository. GitLab has many components besides just Git, including a UI for navigating code, a web-based integrated development environment (IDE) for editing code, and a robust identity implementation to manage access to projects in a multi-tenant environment. This makes it a great solution for our platform since we can map our "roles" to GitLab groups.

In this section, we're going to deploy GitLab into our cluster and create two simple repositories that we'll use later when we deploy Tekton and ArgoCD. We'll focus on the automation steps when we revisit OpenUnison to automate our pipeline deployments.

GitLab deploys with a Helm chart. For this book, we built a custom values file to run a minimal install. While GitLab comes with features that are similar to ArgoCD and Tekton, we won't be using them. We also didn't want to worry about high availability...
