Agentic coding is putting unprecedented pressure on Git: thousands of agents cloning, reading, and writing against infrastructure that was built for human-scale collaboration.

The industry's response so far has largely meant new standalone tools and new IDEs, asking teams to leave behind the Git workflow already woven into their SDKs and developer tooling.

See how GitLab is pairing a redesigned Git backend built for agent scale with the governance, provenance, and lifecycle context that turn fast agent output into trusted, shippable software - without tradeoffs.

Join us to learn:

  • Why a faster Git backend alone won't fix agent-scale development. Agentic coding is breaking traditional Git infrastructure. Learn what that means for your team’s roadmap, risk, and budget conversations.
  • Keeping up with agents doesn't mean giving up your Git workflow. Other approaches trade your existing tooling for a standalone tool or IDE dependency. GitLab’s next-gen SCM lives in the same platform that already runs your CI/CD, security, and governance.
  • A first look at GitLab’s new SCM solution in action. See the architecture behind it and a live demo comparing concurrent Git operations at scale.
  • Why speed alone won't solve agent-scale development. Real readiness means keeping every agent action provenance-tracked, attributed, and audit-ready.
