Gitea as its core is a git forge. A place to store data using git as a synchronisation method.

What data? Anything you want, but best works with loose files like that used with programming so you can roll back code, create a copy to test your change before adding it to the main repository.
That doesn’t mean it can’t store other files. Exe, jpeg, mkv, are all fine to store there but not it’s ideal purpose.

Gitea is awesomly similar to GitHub, GitLab, Codeberg, an many others, yet everything of these - is not Git. Git is a whole Universe started by Linus Torvalds, and now supported by marvelous Communities.

Gitea is a same service, as the aforementioned, for a remote, authorized, and safer Git, and other features as: Repository optimizations and analysis; Issue tracking; Discussions; Automation as Action Workflows etc.

Git Large File Storage (LFS) is normally used for data over 20-100 MB, and it is not directly related, nor officially maintained by Git.

Please do not store in Git pure binary or media files over 10 MB. Otherwise, your remote and local Git may struggle every change processing comparing bit-by-bit, instead of its hashsum.

One of the book to seriously start with Git I would recommend, in addition to its official documentations and Man files:
- Head First Git by Raju Gandhi.

    Funny or not, but the author is a miracle. Their attitude to the book, family, travel, and overall passion is another marvel, too.
    The book is also attributed to his mother.
    
    Writing a book is often viewed as a solitary activity. But no one is an island. I can only aspire to personify the values imparted upon me by my family, teachers, and mentors. My work is built on the shoulders of giants - technologists from the past and present who worked, and continue to work, tirelessly to make the world a better place. You may see my name on the cover, but a lot of the credit for this book goes to these individuals…
    
    The countless individuals who contribute to Git, and those who enrich the ecosystem around Git by writing detailed technical blog posts, creating informative videos, and answering questions on Stack Overflow - I am humbled by your work, and I hope that this book will be a valuable addition to your valiant efforts. Thank you.
    
    My eternally patient, much better half, Michelle, who shouldered everything that needed to be done so I could focus on this book. Several of the narratives in this book come from her creative mind. I love you.
    My family and my sisters, who (despite their fervent denials) forged me into the individual I am. And finally, you, the readers. Your attention is a scarce resource, and I deeply appreciate the time you’ll spend with this book. Happy learning.
    
    Now go on, Git!
