What's the value add of this over GitLab?
- Operyl 8y agoFrom what I understand, it’s a lot more lean. The memory requirements are significantly less, last I reviewed.
- Touche 8y agoEasier to deploy. Compile to a binary, just run it.
- jacobush 8y agoIn this respect, it's like Hippel's (of Sqlite fame) Fossil.
- favadi 8y agoWe used to use Gitea, compare to Gitlab: - uses less resources, a 512MB VM is enough for a small team. Meanwhile Gitlab requires at least 4GB IIRC. - is easier to setup, just a single binary file. Everything else, it can't compete with Gitlab. I'm using it as my personal Git server, works pefectly for 1 user.
- kakwa_ 8y agoI have a gogs installation. One of the main thing I was it for is to synchronize (and backup) my github repositories. Gogs is able to sync an external git repo every 12 or 24 hours. That way, if one day, Github goes belly-up, even if it's unlikely in the foreseeable future, I would have a backup plan. I also use it for personal and not public projects (automation scripts, secrets, etc).
- amq 8y agoGitea is incredibly fast.
