What you can use it for

Host Git repositories, manage issues and review pull requests on your own server.

  • Simple single-file binary or Docker deployment with SQLite, PostgreSQL, or MySQL backends.
  • Built-in Gitea Actions running GitHub Actions compatible workflows via act_runner.
  • Rich web UI for branch protection rules, blame views, releases, and organization teams.
Workflow coverage and comparison notes

Self-host Git repositories, pull-request reviews, issues and CI workflows instead of the repository-hosting portion of the linked paid Git services. Operate your own infrastructure. No equivalent enterprise security, compliance, geo-replication or engineering analytics suite.

Before you switch

Enterprise high-availability clustering and geo-replication require enterprise architecture setup.
