Gitea is very lightweight, easy to get started with, and all-around fantastic Git host, although it does less than Gitlab (I don't think it does CI as a built-in feature, for instance). The web interface is lightning-fast, almost as fast as a native app (no exaggeration here). I'd you have a little spare RAM and a CPU core, it's a great start to self-hosting Git. I have been running it for at least a year, and liked it.
If you want more of a one stop shop, Gitlab is a good alternative. The web UI is slower than Gitea, and the resource requirements specified really do match reality. Don't run it on less than quad core with 8GB of RAM, because it will be slow.
- mastazi 5y agoThank you this helps a lot! Especially when you talk about the requirements and the fact that Gitlab has CI.
