Folks,

I’m looking for a self-hosted GitHub alternative that I can just plop into Portainer as a docker-compose and get working.

My main interest is in something that sort of works with GitHub - if there’s a way I can pull repos from GitHub into this self-hosted git using a webUI and maybe even push my changes to repos on GitHub, that would be nice. I’m not hard-and-fast on this though as this is mostly an experiment right now and I don’t know why I need this.

What are you folks using to host your super secret local code and why?

    I currently use GitLab, but if I were doing things from the start I’d go with Gitea or Forgejo since its lighter. Though I do quite like GitLab CI (which is why I didn’t go with the other initially) but these days I hear Gitea has Actions support built in.

      I’m in the same boat. GitLab CI is so nice that I still host it, even if everything else is overkill.

      Gitlab also has issues, error tracking via sentry and much more. If you want only something nice to host your code go with Gitea, if you also want to manage your project or do auto releases, use gitlab.
