It worked for me  but only with https link in repository setting  Repository    Repository Settings   You need to change setting to    URL   path  https              com username project git Host Type - Stash Host Root URL - your root URL to GitLab  example https              com    Username - leave blank   or in some cases if you have ssh url like   git gitlab com USER REPOSITORY git   and your email like   test google com   then this settings should be work   URL   path  https   test 40google com gitlab com USER REPOSITORY git

Sourcetree 3 x has an option to accept gitLab  See here  I now use Sourcetree 3 0 15  In Settings  put your remote gitLab host and url  etc  If your existing git client version is not supported any more  the easiest way is perhaps to use Sourcetree embedded Git by Tools- Options- Git  in Git Version near the bottom  choose Embedded  A download may happen

If you have the generated SSH key for your project from GitLab you can add it to your keychain in OS X via terminal  ssh-add -K  lt ssh generated key file txt gt  Once executed you will be asked for the passphrase that you entered when creating the SSH key  Once the SSH key is in the keychain you can paste the URL from GitLab into Sourcetree like you normally would to clone the project

Using the SSH URL from GitLab   Step 1  Generate an SSH Key with default values from GitLab   GitLab provides the commands to generate it  Just copy them  edit the email  and paste it in the terminal  Using the default values is important  Else SourceTree will not be able to access the SSH key without additional configuration      STEP 2  Add the SSH key to your keychain using the command ssh-add -K   Open the terminal and paste the above command in it  This will add the key to your keychain   STEP 3  Restart SourceTree and clone remote repo using URL   Restarting SourceTree is needed so that SourceTree picks the new key     STEP 4  Copy the SSH URL provided by GitLab      STEP 5  Paste the SSH URL into the Source URL field of SourceTree       These steps were successfully performed on Mac OS 10 13 2 using SourceTree 2 7 1

It worked for me  but only with ssh key and not with username and password   After i added the ssh key to sourcetree  i changed the settings under Tools - gt  Options - gt  SSH-Client to work with PuTTY Plink   I run into trouble after i added the ssh key  because i forgot to restart sourceTree   this is necessary so that there is an instance of ssh-agent running that SourceTree can talk to with your key loaded   See here  https   answers atlassian com questions 189412 sourcetree-with-gitlab-ssh-not-working

This worked for me   Step 1  Click on   New Repository  Clone from URL  Step 2  In Source URL provide URL followed by your user name   Example    GitLab Repo URL   http   git zaid-labs info zaid iosapp git GitLab User Name   zaid pathan   So final URL should be http   zaid pathan git zaid-labs info zaid iosapp git  Note  zaid pathan  added before git   Step 3  Enjoy cloning

Those are optional settings  Leave it set as Unknown and you should be good   Edit  If  unknown  is no longer an option  try leaving everything in that section blank

There does not seem to be a way to set up a GitLab account within SourceTree  but if you just clone a remote repo it will use your SSH key correctly   Edit  After SourceTree 3 0 it is possible to add various non-Atlassian git accounts  including GitLab
