Enabling a gitlab repo that was set up elsewhere in the webapp doesn't
work.
This is a SMOP; it needs to detect that the repo is on gitlab and use a
custom enabling process and no the generic one, which doesn't work.

It's not possible to use gcrypt with gitlab repos, despite the webapp
currently offering this as an option. The resulting remote works as far as
pushes go, but fails with an error "Failed to connect to remote to set it
up."
It seems that the gitlab repo is somehow in a state where git-annex-shell
configlist reports it's not yet a git-annex repo, but git-annex-shell
gcryptsetup fails with "gcryptsetup refusing to run; this repository already has a git-annex uuid!"
This does not happen when I try the same setup on a self-hosted repo.
Unsure what is causing git-annex-shell to behave this way on gitlab.

Gitlab.com and Gitlab enterprise edition, but unfortunately not Gitlab community edition, now [provides git annex support](https://about.gitlab.com/2015/02/17/gitlab-annex-solves-the-problem-of-versioning-large-binaries-with-git/). It works fairly based for the repos I have enabled it on. At the moment it's free, but one may have to pay for repos larger than 5Gb [in the future](https://about.gitlab.com/2015/02/22/gitlab-7-8-released/#comment-1870271594).
Perhaps gitlab.com should be added to preconfigured cloud providers?
