GitLab

Created by: docwhat

The description field was removed in 2.4 or 2.5. But nothing replaces it, which is really annoying.

This was very useful for showing information like:

• A verbose description of the software.
• Jenkins (a CI tool) job status.
• Jenkins job URL.
• Link to deployments.
• Notes about usage, etc.

Can we either:

1. Show the README on the home page?
2. Show an alternative (maybe specified per project or globally) file?
3. Show a hard-coded file like DESCRIPTION or GITLAB-DESCRIPTION?

Ciao!
