the gitlab port has the following security bug:
https://about.gitlab.com/2017/04/05/gitlab-9-dot-0-dot-4-security-release=
/

But I cannot apply anything (you even can not run it currently) as the
rubygem-google-api-client upgrade has broken the dependency tree.
To explain it a little bit more:
the new rubygem-google-api-client depends on a module > 3.0.
but rubygem-rest-client needs version < 3.0

This is a run dependency, you will not see while building the port.

But gitlab depends on both ports, which makes it completely broken.
You cannot run it anymore.

I hope that makes it clear, that commiting this port (https://bugs.freebs=
d.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D218366) is really crucial.
