Having searched here on Stack Overflow and found this question, I now understand that Github for Windows will work with Gitlab.
I'm using the Community edition of Gitlab on a local server and I can't get it to work, so just to expand upon the question I've linked above, can anyone confirm if it will work with the community edition of Gitlab?
I've tried to connect with my email and password, with the URL set to the base URL of the installation (https://git.example.com/), am I perhaps just using the wrong URL for this? I'm finding documentation for Github for Windows is somewhat lacking.

You can integrate your GitLab instance with GitHub.com and GitHub Enterprise. You can import projects from GitHub, or sign in to GitLab with your GitHub credentials.
Yup, it is under the MIT license. There is nothing preventing you from using it for commercial projects. The other editions simply add more features and support.
Free users could use either one of two distributions: Community Edition (CE) and Enterprise Edition (EE). Enterprise Edition can be downloaded, installed, and run without a commercial subscription. In this case it runs using the open source license and only has access to the open source features.
GitLab itself cannot be installed on a Windows server, but you can use a GitLab Runner to access an existing GitLab installation on a Linux server from Windows. This software is installed in Windows and is compatible with the continuous integration functionality of GitLab (GitLab CI/CD).
What worked for me was loading up and logging into GitLab in your browser. Navigating to the repository you want, highlighting and drag/drop the https url for your repo into the GitHub for Windows app. It will clone locally, and ask you to login.
