Step 2 - Authorize GitMe Performance Tracking

  • After clicking the button, you will be redirected to GitLab’s official authorization screen.

    • Read-only access to your repositories
    • Read API (for extra read-only analytics)
    • Authenticate using OpenID Connect

    GitMe only collects information required for analytics and developer activity insights.
    • Your code will never be changed, deleted, or written to.
    • You remain in control and can revoke access at any time.
  • Review the permissions and click Authorize GitMe Performance Tracking
    • Note: GitMe requires only read access. Your code will never be modified.
