<p>I recently installed an application called Gitea <a href="/daily/2024/12/01/homelabbing-with-nixos">on my homelab</a>.</p>
<p>It's a service for hosting and managing Git repositories, similar to GitHub, GitLab and Bitbucket, but I'm hosting it on my own hardware and I'm in full control of my data.</p>
<p>I've moved all of my client project code from private repositories in the Cloud to my Gitea instance, as well as some of my own private repositories for work-in-progress or archived projects.</p>
<p>I plan to keep my open source project repositories on GitHub and Drupal.org, and use Gitea for personal and client project code, but I may move more to Gitea - like my website code and dotfiles - as time goes on.</p>
<p>And, because I use NixOS for my homelab, installing Gitea was as easy as <code>services.gitea.enable = true</code>.</p>
<p>There is also a Docker Compose image and Gitea Cloud, but running something like Gitea for your private code is something I'd like to see more Developers and agencies do.</p>
