Git repository storage/forge recommendations?

freddo@feddit.nu to Selfhosted@lemmy.world – 30 points –

Looking into possibly replacing my GitLab instance, as I find it bloated and heavy on both hardware and maintenance compared to alternatives.

Currently I'm looking at:

  • GitTea
  • Forgejo, as GitTea turned into a for-profit, otherwise that would be the clear choice
  • OneDev

So I'm wondering what the people on here use, and if they have any other suggestions or opinions?

Gitea is light and fast so I highly recommend it. If you are worried about it being a for profit company, then use the fork, but if they haven’t done any harm, I’d said give them a shot.

Are there any feature differences between gitea and forgejo?

I can't figure out any differences other than the ownership structure.

Forgejo is about to introduce support for federation, but is also planning to upstream those changes to GitTea down the line

Federation would be super cool. Lemmy has really sold me on it.

I tried it at one point and they hadn't even done a find/replace on "gitea", so it would seem the changes, if any, are pretty minimal.
