Yeah - as someone who's ran their own git server back in the day with gitolite... 100% agree that GitLab is an easier/quicker solution.
Also it's fully featured and WAY simpler to setup on your run-of-the-mill VPS. Personally I have mine hosted at Linode at $25/mo with backups enabled + a $10/mo worker for simple Docker-based builds. This keeps all of my git repos private and 100% in my ownership which is how I prefer to work (sorry GitHub).

GitLab is amazing and I'm a huge advocate.
