Gitlab  is a web-based Git repository manager with wiki and issue tracking features, using an open source license, developed by GitLab Inc. Not a lot of recruiters try to source there. The reason is simple they do not know how. Well to do this without worry you need go no further than into your bag of tricks and pull out an old tried and true tool, called x-raying.

So to source within Gitlab you simply need to create an x-ray string, like the one below.

site:contributors.gitlab.com/contributors java

If you run the strings above in google you will get the results below.

If you need more info on X-raying see my blog post http://www.recruitingblogs.com/profiles/blogs/seeing-what-is-really...
