It makes sense I think ... with an option to make them private (only for me), project specific or global (for all on GitLab).

We could add this when working on #2173 (closed).

I think this would be best implemented as (hidden) user and global repositories. This would enable diffs between changes to snippets/"gists" and theres no need for an "extra" storage system. backing up database+repos would be sufficient.

@Andrew8xx8 thanks for contributing that feature. It will be very useful. Question: will your changes be accessible via API? i.e. Can I create a personal snippet via API?

At now you cannot. But I still working on this feature.

One of the most important things in my opinion. Public and Private Account driven Snippets. Maybe divided into language and/or technology (web, mobile, desktop, ...).

Snippets shouldnt be under Profile, there should be a global link like on Github on the top bar.

Im new to github and only C# programmer, but how could i help to realize this feature? I would also be interested into making a Windows client like the github one.

You should call them gitlets. (Or giblets? … Maybe not.)

Would there also be a way of optionally making a specific gist public for all users?
