It ships as a single binary or container image and provides Git hosting over SSH and HTTPS, pull requests with review, issues and milestones, wikis, a package registry for formats such as npm, PyPI, Docker and Go modules, and Gitea Actions, a CI system that reuses the GitHub Actions workflow syntax and much of its ecosystem through act_runner.\n\nIts footprint is the defining trait: Gitea runs comfortably on a small VM, a Raspberry Pi or a spare Mac mini with SQLite, and scales to PostgreSQL or MySQL for larger installations. Authentication supports local accounts, LDAP, OAuth2 and OpenID Connect, and repository mirroring can pull from or push to GitHub and GitLab. Gitea Ltd. also offers a hosted Gitea Cloud and an Enterprise edition with support, while the core remains MIT-licensed.\n\nIn a private cluster, Gitea is a natural home for internal repositories, mirrors of external projects and a package cache, with Actions runners placed on the nodes that have the right toolchains. The 2022 creation of Gitea Ltd. and its control of the trademark and domain prompted part of the community to fork the project as Forgejo; both continue to be developed and remain broadly compatible, though they have diverged in features and governance.\n\nLimitations: the hosted Gitea Cloud and Enterprise tiers are commercial, the Actions implementation is not a complete clone of GitHub's (some marketplace actions and services behave differently), and Gitea provides neither the managed security scanning nor the social discovery of GitHub.",15  "capabilities": ["Git hosting over SSH and HTTPS with branch protection", "Pull requests, code review and issue tracking", "Gitea Actions CI compatible with GitHub workflow syntax", "Package registry for npm, PyPI, Docker, Go and more", "Repository mirroring to and from other forges", "LDAP, OAuth2 and OpenID Connect authentication", "Single-binary or container deployment with SQLite, PostgreSQL or MySQL", "REST API and webhooks"],16  "workflows": ["Host private repositories for a small team on one server", "Mirror GitHub projects for offline or air-gapped use", "Run CI jobs on self-hosted act_runner nodes", "Serve a private npm or PyPI registry"],17  "advantages": ["Very low resource requirements", "MIT license with commercial support available", "Familiar GitHub-style interface and Actions syntax", "Easy to install and upgrade"],18  "limitations": ["Actions compatibility with GitHub is partial", "No managed security scanning", "Hosted and enterprise editions are commercial", "Governance change led to the Forgejo fork"],19  "prerequisites": ["A Linux, macOS or Windows host; optional PostgreSQL or MySQL"],20  "audiences": ["Small teams and individuals self-hosting Git", "Organizations needing an air-gapped forge", "Home-lab and private-cluster operators"],21  "alternatives": ["forgejo", "gitlab", "github"],22  "comparison_notes": "Forgejo is a community fork of Gitea under GPL-3.0-or-later governance by Codeberg; it tracks many of the same features and is the choice for users who prefer a non-profit steward.
