It's really not that complicated to get a domain and host your own instance of Gitea, and it would make it a lot more resilient to takedowns, if you have the right domain registrar and instance host.
- matheusmoreira 4y agoGit hosting would be a great Tor hidden service. I wonder if git can push to onion addresses...
- capableweb 4y agoAbsolutely, you can use Tor over a local Socks5 proxy that the daemon exposes, so you can do pushes over SSH as normal. Works perfectly fine.
- matheusmoreira 4y agoThat's awesome. Would be cool if there was a hidden git service with monero payments for storage. I don't really know anything about the opsec necessary for such a thing.
- alwayslikethis 4y agoI feel like using git for a sensitive code distribution is a poor idea. Git exposes rather a lot of information about you, from basic ones like username to a history of commits (what if you accidentally committed something revealing PII?) It's much better to simply distribute code as a tar.gz archive or something.
- rolenthedeep 4y agoI mean, if you're going so far as to set up git as a tor service, it probably isn't that much more work to obfuscate or just delete user info from commits. But I'm not sure a vcs is what you'd want anyway. It might make more sense to just host a zip of the most recent branch state instead of exposing the history
- jacooper 4y agoIs it illegal though? I think there are different rules out there, maybe modifying closed source apps is legal.
