How to Install Gogs Git on Ubuntu 24.04: In Just 8 Steps

I still want to investigate cogs but I can't ever imagine to use that instead of molodetz because gitea is really perfect in my eyes. The product is like I've written it myself regarding functionality with a quality how I WANT (but rarely do / keep up the quality) to write myself. Gitea is an open source product where it's really possible to make changes yourself to the software worth the effort. You can customize every open source software in theory, but in practice, it isn't worth the effort and you'll end up writing stuff yourself.

Bug thanks, I gonna look up gogs but I'm worried that it's again some type of modern web app requiring 8Gb ram and stuff. Will try on internal server, but it will also be the reason i won't use it. I do not accept web applications that idle 8Gb like a few do these days. I won't support this way of development. But hey, I gonna try it first before burning it to the ground :P

I stand corrected. Cogs is amazing software. A gitea LITE! A bit TOO lite for me I guess, but amazing!

I made a one step setup, feel free to use it: https://molodetz.nl/retoor/...

It's just docker compose up after checking out the repository.

Cool, total configuration time with zero knowledge was 30 minutes with HTTPS and mail service configured: https://gogs.molodetz.nl/.

I made the docker compose setup myself. I see they offered docker boxes but no compose file.

If you have issues with setting up, i can help if you want.
