Code Hosting

Forgejo

Community-driven lightweight Git forge for repositories and collaboration.

Why people self-host Forgejo

Forgejo is a community-led Git forge that keeps repository hosting, issues, pull requests, and packages lightweight. It is a good fit for teams that want independence from commercial forge strategy.

The tradeoff is fewer enterprise features than GitLab. Back up repositories, database, attachments, and SSH host keys together.

Deployment notes

Forgejo is listed with support signals for linux, docker. Check the upstream documentation before exposing it to the internet, review authentication defaults, and keep backups outside the primary host.
