I will have to look. I haven't used Codeberg before so I was kind of just assuming. I think I will make my way over to Codeberg. permalink fedilink source parent load more comments (1 reply)
[–] Jason2357@lemmy.ca 23 points 1 year ago (3 children) A forge like Codeberg is great for collaboration, but if you mean private as in just-for-yourself, pushing to a bare repo on just about anything will get it done. No need for a software forge. If you already sync files somehow, like some dropbox equivelant, put bare repos on there and push/pull from there. That said, forgejo is very easy to self-host and the identical UI to Codeberg. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] Cenzorrll@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago (2 children) I don't do any development, but my stepkid is starting to get into it, so I set up a forgejo container on my server.

[–] sbv@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago (4 children) Doesn't Codeberg have private repos? I could've sworn I've created one. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] tfm@europe.pub 12 points 1 year ago (1 child) If you need private repositories for commercial projects (e.g. because you represent a company or are a developer that needs a space to host private freelance projects for your clients), we would highly recommend that you take a look at Forgejo. Forgejo is the Git hosting software that Codeberg runs. It is free software and relatively easy to self-host. Codeberg does not offer private hosting services. https://docs.codeberg.org/getting-started/faq/ permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] doeknius_gloek@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 1 year ago* How about private repositories?
