About Gitea
Gitea is a lightweight, self-hosted Git service for code hosting, code review, issues and packages. It is open source under the MIT license and can run on a server you control.
What it does
Gitea gives you a web interface for Git repositories, with pull requests for code review, issue tracking and project boards. It includes an integrated CI/CD system called Gitea Actions, which runs workflows written in a YAML format familiar from GitHub Actions. A built-in package registry stores many common package types, so builds can pull dependencies from the same server.
Key features
- Git repositories with code review
- Issues, labels, milestones and kanban boards
- Gitea Actions for CI/CD workflows
- Package registry for more than 20 formats
- Runs on several operating systems
Who it's for
Gitea suits developers and small teams who want to host their own code. Companies that need more control over where source code and build data are stored also use it.
Pricing and good to know
The software is open source and free to self-host. A managed Gitea Cloud service and an Enterprise edition with support are also offered, and both come with a 30-day free trial. Self-hosting means you handle backups, updates and server security yourself.
