Gitea vs Gogs vs Forgejo | Which Git Server is Best in 2025?

Описание: If you’re self-hosting your development tools in 2025, choosing the right Git server is crucial. In this video, we compare Gitea, Gogs, and Forgejo—three lightweight, open-source Git platforms that offer GitHub-style functionality without vendor lock-in.

Gitea is a community-driven, self-hosted Git service that's fast, secure, and actively maintained. It features web-based repo browsing, issue tracking, pull requests, CI integrations, and containerized deployment.

Gogs, the original project forked into Gitea, offers similar functionality with an ultra-lightweight footprint and super-fast performance, perfect for small teams and local dev environments.

Forgejo is a Gitea fork focused on community governance, privacy, and federation-ready Git hosting. It aligns with the Codeberg initiative and aims to remain fully transparent and user-owned.

This video dives deep into:

Setup and deployment (Docker, bare metal, cloud)

UI experience and user access control

CI/CD support and integrations

Federation, ActivityPub, and decentralization

Community support, roadmap, and project governance

Whether you're running a private Git server, building a local dev hub, or supporting an open-source community, this comparison will help you decide what platform works best for you in 2025.
