Gitea

A lightweight, self-contained Git hosting service with issues, PRs, CI hooks, and package registry. Standout trait is its single static binary that runs comfortably on a Raspberry Pi yet also scales to team-wide production use.

βš™ Full Stack

Single Go binary embedding the web server, Git smart-HTTP/SSH protocol handling, and a job scheduler; supports SQLite, MySQl, or Postgres for structured data, with repo objects on disk/PVC.

πŸ“ˆ Scaling Analysis

The Go binary is CPU/IO efficient and stateless aside from the Git object store and DB; horizontal scaling requires a shared filesystem (NFS/PVC) for repo data since Git objects live on disk, making it scale-out-capable but not trivially so.

πŸš€ Running on Nexlayer

One gitea pod plus a postgres pod (postgres.pod:5432) and a PVC for repo storage; expose both HTTP and SSH ports. Official image is Docker Hub library (gitea/gitea) β€” mirror through mirror.gcr.io/library/gitea per policy.
