Summary

GitLab experienced significant growth within its community in 2019, marked by a substantial increase in merged merge requests (MRs) and contributors, culminating in a record number of MRs for the 12.6 release. The number of contributors nearly doubled from the previous year, reaching almost 900, and the regular contributors with five or more merged MRs also saw a notable rise. This growth reflects GitLab's thriving open-source community, with an emphasis on both code contributions and community insights. Looking ahead, GitLab will participate in FOSDEM on February 1st and 2nd, where they will host a stand, a meetup session, and talks by team members, while also planning a Happy Hour event to engage with community members during the conference.
