Gitea Git Service

Gitea is a free and open-source self-hosted Git service that provides a lightweight, fast, and easy-to-install alternative to GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket for source code hosting, code review, and project management. Originally forked from Gogs in 2016 by an international community of contributors (led by the Gitea team), Gitea is written in Go and designed to be a community-driven, lightweight, and vendor-neutral Git platform. Key features: Git hosting: full Git repository hosting with support for all Git features (branches, tags, pull requests, merge strategies). Repositories can be public, private, or limited to organization members. Code review: pull requests with inline code comments, review approvals, merge commits, squash merges, and rebase merges. Diff viewer with syntax highlighting and side-by-side comparison. Issue tracking: built-in issue tracker with labels, milestones, assignees, due dates, time tracking, and issue templates. Kanban-style project boards for project management. Wiki: each repository can have a Git-backed wiki for documentation. Releases: create releases with tags, release notes, and binary attachments. CI/CD: Gitea Actions (since version 1.19) provides a CI/CD system compatible with GitHub Actions syntax, allowing workflows to run on Gitea's own runners. Organizations and teams: group repositories under organizations with team-based access control (read, write, admin). Authentication: built-in user management, LDAP/Active Directory, OAuth2, PAM, SMTP, and SSO (via OpenID Connect). Webhooks: configurable webhooks for repository events (push, pull request, issues) with support for Slack, Discord, Teams, DingTalk, and custom payloads. API: comprehensive REST API and GraphQL for programmatic access. Lightweight: a single Go binary with minimal dependencies, running in under 100 MB of RAM. SQLite, MySQL, PostgreSQL, or MSSQL backend. Docker deployment. Cross-platform. MIT.
