> Not long ago I read on the Internet about a program for hosting projects based on git called gitea. Wikipedia said about the split of the project and the creation of a commercial organization. Now the free fork that many developers have gone to is called Forgejo. Here is a link to the main page of the project https://forgejo.org/
> Back in October, Gitea raised VC funds and went private, which is why Forgejo was initiated. It's community-driven with its first release in November. Codeberg is now using Forgejo's backend instead of Gitea's.

Perhaps gentoo should switch www-apps/gitea to forgejo?

Back in October, Gitea raised VC funds and went private, which is why Forgejo was initiated. It's community-driven with its first release in November. Codeberg is now using Forgejo's backend instead of Gitea's.

It has been added to GURU https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/proj/guru.git/tree/www-apps/forgejo and maintained fairly up-to-date with upstream.
