Why people self-host Gitea

Gitea is a compact Git service with a broad user base and straightforward administration. It covers repository hosting, pull requests, issues, packages, and integrations without demanding a large server.

The tradeoff is a smaller all-in-one DevOps surface than GitLab. Validate runner strategy and backup procedures before moving critical repos.

Deployment notes

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