Comment on How to self-host a distributed git server cluster?

Not really.
K8s would use a “checked-out” visible representation, not the repo database itself.

Sorry, I don’t understand. What happens when my k8s cluster goes down taking my git server with it?

You do not let your k8s control instance look “live” at your git server during the start (or reformation) of the whole cluster. It needs the (repo and) files checked out somewhere locally, and this local “somewhere” must exist at start time.
Later, when your git is alive, you do a regular git pull for keeping it up to date.

Oh I get it. Auto-pull the repos to the master nodes’ local storage for if something bad happens, and when that does, use the automatically pulled (and hopefully current) code to fix what broke.
Good idea
