Bitnami package for GitLab CE
Bitnami by VMware | 16.11.1-ce.0-0 on Debian 12Linux/Unix, Debian 12 - 64-bit Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
Everything works great, but email
Works well for the most part. Getting the password for the default admin account (user@example.com) took a few minutes for me to read enough to realize the initial password is generated and is found in the System Log. Setting up new accounts is a pain because email does not work, which is required for users to verify their email address and enable the account. I didn't want to spend the time fixing email so I just went with a free bitbucket account instead.

Not what I was looking for
Gitlab is deployed in a very specific, non-standard way here and you'll have to go with the bitnami documentation (which is ok) to update it. In addition, there were a few glitches in the default installation I was unable to sort out. So I switched to a FreeBSD instance, installed Gitlab manually and now it works like a charm.
