Questions about selfhosting Git, and making some small scratch on the side. - Lemmy.World

Basically, what the title says. I’m a C, C+, C# … Basically, a C languages dev. Work on Video Games mostly, but I like doing other projects as well. Working on some larger ones like in Unreal and Godot that need some big boy space / CI time so I’ve set off on a small self hosting journey. Got Nginx set up with Gitea at the moment, but am open to Gitlab, etc. I was wondering if it’s easy to setup these services for LFS space / CI runtime rental for a few buddies of mine just to handle management and potential rental costs depending on how far that goes. I’m also wondering if Gitea or GitLab would be better for an endeavor like this?

If you’re thinking about Gitea look instead towards Forgejo (forgejo.org), which was forked from Gitea when they started playing not-nice with their licensing: forgejo.org/compare-to-gitea/
Forgejo – Beyond coding. We forge.

Forgejo is a self-hosted lightweight software forge. Easy to install and low maintenance, it just does the job.
