Well, it's too early to know the new direction of Github, and I don't
really think that Microsoft will mess up Github (at least not in the
short-mid term).

But anyway I like the idea of leave github for gitlab based the following
reasons:
* Github is not open source, GitLab is.
* GitLab uses and promotes PostgreSQL, a perfect match to a PostgreSQL
project.
* Big projects like GNOME choose GitLab.
* A more integrated CI and CD.

The only issue I see is that all the travis jobs must be "ported" to
gitlab-ci.yml (which might be easy or difficult since pgjdbc uses some
tweaks in jobs).
