GitLab's next-generation source code management, shown at its Transcend event, keeps the Git protocol but rebuilds the backend so agents query repos server-side instead of cloning them.

GitLab disclosed a reduction in force on May 11, plans to shed up to 30% of its country footprint, remove up to three management layers, and reorganize R&D into roughly 60 teams by June 1.

GitLab's April 16 release graduates a security agent that opens ready-to-merge fixes for confirmed SAST findings, ships a beta CI pipeline agent and a generally available analytics agent, and gives administrators enforceable monthly caps on Duo Agent Platform credits.

GitLab's April release adds a CI Expert Agent that generates pipelines from repository analysis, moves Agentic SAST vulnerability resolution to GA, and delivers natural-language DevOps analytics.

Git 2.54, released April 20, introduces a new history-editing command inspired by Jujutsu, config-based hooks, geometric repacking by default, and a pluggable object database built over two years and roughly 400 commits.
