Folks,

I’m looking for a self-hosted GitHub alternative that I can just plop into Portainer as a docker-compose and get working.

My main interest is in something that sort of works with GitHub - if there’s a way I can pull repos from GitHub into this self-hosted git using a webUI and maybe even push my changes to repos on GitHub, that would be nice. I’m not hard-and-fast on this though as this is mostly an experiment right now and I don’t know why I need this.

What are you folks using to host your super secret local code and why?

    gitlab can be selfhosted

      And is hilariously overkill for what OP seems to want. It’s a pretty large and heavy package that comes with a whole lot of (for OP unnecessary) features.

        My experience was that they were definitely overkill until they weren’t, and I was glad to be comfortable in the UI when I wanted to start playing with more advanced features. Something like the sameersbn/gitlab docker image can get you started and grow with you a ton.
