It really is comparable to Gitlab without the heft that Gitlab brings. Moreover, it is really straightforward to install and you can run it on a really low-end machine which makes it perfect to get up and running just to try it out.
- kissgyorgy 7y agoNot even close. GitLab made huge progress over the years.
- naranja 7y agoI don't think the comparison to GitLab is reasonable: Gitlab brings a much broader feature set and has a much larger product vision https://about.gitlab.com/direction/maturity/ https://about.gitlab.com/direction/maturity/ I'm mostly missing a native CI-support. I do agree, that most "simply a GitHub-like web frontend for Git"-purposes Gitea sounds like a really awesome deal if simplicity and functionality. Looking at https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/comparison/ https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/comparison/ is really an impressive list.
- 1337shadow 7y agoNative CI is definitely going to cause a user base shift, drone-ci does the job but in my opinion the decision to not let users directly edit env vars makes it pretty annoying to maintain simple configurations - where you don't deport environment variables to some external secret manager which you'de put a key for in your CI, when such complexity is not needed for a project.
