Gitlab also can be run in your own server. It actually has an enterprise and an open source version. We use the open source one for a couple of years and it is really great - I recommend it with all my heart.
It has great instructions for installing directly from source and you don't really need to be familiar with ruby to install it. It requires some standard components (web server, database) which should exist on all servers and then you follow the instructions and presto! You have your own gitlab!! It also has great upgrade instructions so you can always be up-to-date.
I know gitlab can also be used through the cloud version (and it even has free private repos) however some organizations feel better if the source code of their projects stay inside the organization.
- treve 10y agoGitlab is massive though. I think it's a great solution for teams on dedicated hardware, but if you need something quick, low-maintenance and lightweight Gitlab might be a bit overkill.
- kewleus 10y agoYou can't get much quicker or low maintenance than gitlab, though it is definitely not lightweight.

- gedrap 10y agoDigital Ocean has so called one click apps, that they can deploy and setup at any droplet and gitlab is one of them: https://www.digitalocean.com/products/one-click-apps/gitlab/ https://www.digitalocean.com/products/one-click-apps/gitlab/ I have tried it before and it just works, took my less than 5 minutes to have a fully working gitlab instance on a $10/month droplet. It's not the cheapest option probably, but very low effort so it's quite worth it.
