GitLab

Here's an introduction on source maps:

I recently had a case where a GitLab tab was causing very bad hangs in the Firefox UI. This has since been fixed in Firefox (see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=868139, apparently caused my having many timeouts set), but it was hard to see where in the GitLab code the bug was due to minified JavaScript. It would be nice to package source maps. I tried to look at the code, but I couldn't find out where the coffeescript is turned into JavaScript and minified. I did find this project:

https://github.com/markbates/coffee-rails-source-maps

Which might help with getting this done.
