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?
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:
Be civil: we’re here to support and learn from one another. Insults won’t be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
No spam posting.
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.
Don’t duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
No trolling.

Gogs and Gitea are git alternatives that offers GitLab features with less system resource demands.
Though, it would be good to understand your use case, whereby a GitHub private repository would not be suitable…
It now also comes with Gitea Actions and the Act Runner - in case this feature is relevant to you.
Wow, no one till now mentioned Gitea has a runner and actions. Thanks!
Yeah, I don‘t know if they have finally anounced it officially, but they mentioned it in their blog post in March. I‘ve installed it, and it works quite well for my usecase.
