About Forgejo

Forgejo is a self-hostable Git forge maintained by an independent community under the umbrella of Codeberg e.V., the Berlin-based non-profit. Forked from Gitea in late 2022, it provides repositories, issue tracking, pull requests, code review, kanban boards, wikis and CI through Forgejo Actions, and is licensed under GPLv3. It powers Codeberg.org and is being adopted by Fedora Linux among others. The software is free and ships in container, package and Docker forms; deployments run on Linux and macOS.
