  • WorkOS

  • Gitea

    Git with a cup of tea! Painless self-hosted all-in-one software development service, including Git hosting, code review, team collaboration, package registry and CI/CD

    Pinning to 2/major version is asking for trouble. Just the other day Gitea released 1.18.0 which would not even start unless you update the configuration file with the new settings. And this project has always had relatively "stable" releases. Not everyone follows semver to the letter, and it is impossible/very hard to follow completely [1].
