Native code intelligence is coming to GitLab

What this post added

This post details the integration of Sourcegraph's code intelligence capabilities directly into the GitLab codebase. This includes adding native support for 'go-to-definition' and 'find references' within hover tooltips in various code views. The integration was achieved through collaboration between Sourcegraph and GitLab engineering teams, resulting in a browser-based developer platform without requiring extra plugins for users on GitLab.com. For self-managed instances, a private Sourcegraph instance is required. The rollout strategy on GitLab.com involves dogfooding within the _gitlab-org_ group first, with plans to extend to public projects.
