  3. 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

    The built in package registries are awesome in Gitea. A little strange with permissions (takes the permissions of the user, not the associated repo), but has been working flawlessly for me.

  4. docker-gitea-act-runner

    Docker image based on debian:stable-slim to run Gitea's act_runner as a Docker container

    I use this as the runner and it works well apart from the pull limit issue.

  5. cgit-container

    A hyperfast web frontend for git repositories written in C. OCI Image

    If you need a cgit container I keep one maintained here https://github.com/chimbosonic/cgit-container

  6. Gogs

    Gogs is a painless self-hosted Git service

    To me i like the best GOGS https://gogs.io/. Same features like GitHub but all local and lightweight
