I’m hoping federation will allow me to get rid of my github entirely, but that’s wishful thinking I fear
Comment on Selfhost your own gitea instance - selfhosted, lightweight github alternative
cizra@lemm.ee 2 months ago
I started running my own Gitea instance because I wanted a private place to host my Obsidian notes.
I don’t have the time to read the article now, but permit a question: what do you use Gitea for?
I’m holding my dotfiles on a SSH server, clone/push over SSH, and it’s enough to do Git. I don’t need a ticket system, or wiki or anything (I use plaintext notes).
$ cat ~/.ssh/config Host srv Hostname srv.mywhatever.com $ git clone srv:/path/to/repo $ cd repo $ git push

Great question
I always found setting up a git server from scratch to be quite confusing and I also like the webui that gitea offers.
But recently I have also started moving some of my github projects there so having a link (with a readme and everything) that I can share with others is important.
