The fork happened years ago because Gogs was (not entirely sure of current status) managed by a single person who would disappear on the regular, leaving fixes and other things not merged for weeks. So it got forked by people who were contributing to Gogs, and I think that ended up pushing Gogs into more active development. Now the two projects are still very similar but diverged enough to have some important differences like the OAuth support in gitea and such.
- zzzeek 8y agooauth is a total no-brainer feature add. Years ago I abandoned Trac because I couldn't deal w/ the spam user accounts and oauth integration w/ github wasn't really a thing back then. gogs should really add this though already gitea seems like that's where this particular community has gone.
- simcop2387 8y agogitea somewhat recently also added support for some 2fa stuff too. I haven't played with it yet but it seems like auth is being taken seriously there.
