since gitlab provides an easy way to browse repositories, it is also a prime source for email harvesting.

it would be great if emails would somehow be obfuscated (at least for anonymous access).

note

it's true that for a public repository, anybody could clone it and harvest the email addresses from the clone. but i think it is significantly easier to just target a bot at https://gitlab.com/ and extract all the email addresses from the webpages.
