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

I wasn’t planning to run a GUI for my git servers unless really required, so I’ll probably use SSH. Thanks, yes that makes the part of the reverse proxy a lot easier.
I think your idea of having a designated “master” (server 1) and having rolling updates to the rest of the servers is a brilliant idea. The replication procedure becomes a lot easier this way, and it also removes the need for the reverse-proxy too! - I can just use Keepalived, set up weights to make one of them the master and corresponding slaves for failover. It also won’t do round-robin so no special stuff for sticky sessions! This is great news from the perspective of networking for this project.
Hmm, you said to enable pushing repos to the remote git repo instead of having it pull? I was going create a wireguard tunnel and have it accessible from my network for some stuff but I guess it makes sense.
Thanks again for the wonderful comment.
