I mainly just use bare SSH and/or point my web server to my repos as I don’t really need a whole UI for stuff I’m pretty much the only one that will ever use it.

I feel like it’s a git feature that’s often overlook by those that have only used to GitHub/GitLab/Gitea before. Git was originally designed to just be a folder on a server you have SSH access (read-write) or HTTP(S) access (read-only).

I’ve used Gogs and Gitea in the past but found it overkill for my needs.

Exactly what I do. Unless you need fancier collaboration features–issue tracker, UI for handling PRs, etc–a bare repo on the other side of ssh plus something like cgit if you want to make the code available via a browser is perfectly sufficient.

The only selfhosted github I know about is github enterprise.

If you just want to host git repos, gitea, and gitlab are good. You don’t need that to host git though, git is peer based and doesn’t require a fancy dashboard to work.

Create post

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don’t control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we’re here to support and learn from one another. Insults won’t be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it’s not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don’t duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.
