Support for Forgejo/Codeberg (fork of Gitea) #2124

Open svoop opened 1 month ago

svoop commented 1 month ago

You might want to consider adding support for Forgejo (which powers Codeberg) at some point. It should not be very difficult since Forgejo is a fork of Gitea which is already supported.

Forgejo was forked after the controversy of Gitea going commercial. Taken from the README of Forgejo:

Forgejo was created in 2022 because we think that the project should be owned by an independent community. If you second that, then Forgejo is for you! Our promise: Independent Free/Libre Software forever!

Similar to GitLab, there are two ways to use Forgejo:

Btw, what will set Forgejo apart from other self-hostable platforms like GitLab is the ability to federate, a feature currently being worked on. Different instances of Forgejo (including the Codeberg one) would then become part of the Fediverse and hosting your own instance would no longer limit contributions to users of your own instance. Again from their README:

Federation: (WIP) We are actively working to connect software forges with each other through ActivityPub, and create a collaborative network of personal instances.
