Forgejo

Git Forge

Overview

/dev/hack hosts its own Git forge, providing a platform for collaborative software development and version control. The Git forge is self-hosted using the Forgejo platform, an open-source alternative to popular services like GitHub and GitLab.

Features

Repositories: Create and manage repositories for your projects, whether for personal or group development.
Collaboration: Collaborate with other members by tracking issues, pull requests, and reviewing code.
Continuous Integration: Integrate with CI/CD pipelines to automate testing and deployment.
Webhooks: Connect your repositories to external services via webhooks to respond to events such as commits or pull requests.
User Management: Fine-grain access control lets you manage repo visibility (private/public) and user permissions.
