Summary

CI/CD for GitHub allows users to host their code on GitHub while leveraging GitLab's CI/CD capabilities, which can be used with any Git repository. Initially offered as a premium feature for GitLab Self-Managed users, it was made available for free on GitLab.com to support the vast number of repositories on GitHub. Though initially set for a limited time, the free use of this feature for private repositories has been extended multiple times, currently allowing usage until March 22, 2020, for Free or Bronze users on GitLab.com. This extension, which continues to support open-source projects with Gold features for free, is meant to encourage more users to utilize GitLab's CI/CD tools by automatically mirroring GitHub repos to GitLab.com. The decision to extend the free offering was based on previously established reasoning that remains relevant, and GitLab continues to seek user feedback to improve the offering.
