Setup via GitLab

1. Go to https://gitlab.com/oauth/applications.
2. Log in if prompted.
3. Set the name of the application to whatever you want it to be (it doesn't really matter).
4. Enter your Redirect Uri which should be something like this: https://myforum.com/auth/gitlab (SSL is required).
5. The only scope necessary is read_user so just tick that box.
