The thing you're missing is that in this case UI is not something you can usefully make different without harming yourself in the process, due to it being a huge contributor to function beyond form, and "ripping it off" doesn't hurt anyone else as long as you don't actually impersonate them by copying their logos.

Stash, Bitbucket and Gitlab all tend to disagree that theres only one way to build a UI for git websites.

I agree that no one is being harmed, but personally I just thing it's shameful.

    Stash and Bitbucket are horrible to use imo, and last time i looked Gitlab looked almost the same as Github.

      Gitlab's UI has evolved considerably in the last couple of years. If it looked just like Github when you last saw it, I would suggest checking it out again because it's quite different compared to the gitlab of 2013ish.

      also I agree with you that stash and bitbucket are Really Not That Great.
