Native code intelligence is coming to GitLab

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.
