What about gitlab? Isn't that the same as GitHub? If not I'll need to see how they are different.

Gitlab isn't really lightweight. It is cool, but not lightweight.

Ahh ok, I know the other team deployed it in our openshift environment so wasn't sure.

Yeah. It needs 3gb ram, now. That's about 1/10th what a Windows VM needs to boot, seemingly, but still large.
