Git Server

This configuration utilizes docker, gitea, caddy, and soft serve for my own self-hosted git instance.

Attracted by the feature set of gitea and the charm (pun intended) of soft serve, I was unable to choose how to host my own git instance, so I didn't.

Combining the best of both worlds, I manually update repos served by soft serve with a simple cron job to afford myself both a TUI and a browser.

Setup

To keep soft-serve version up to date add the following lines to sudo crontab.

# update repos
0 * * * * make -C /home/daylin/git soft-repos
# update container so home page is semi-accurate
0 2 * * * make -C /home/daylin/git update-soft-serve

Notable changes to app.ini for gitea.

APP_NAME = Daylin's Git Server
RUN_MODE = prod
RUN_USER = git

[server]
DOMAIN     = https://git.dayl.in
SSH_DOMAIN = git.dayl.in
ROOT_URL   = https://git.dayl.in/

[service]
DISABLE_REGISTRATION = true
NO_REPLY_ADDRESS     = noreply.git.dayl.in

[service.explore]
DISABLE_USERS_PAGE = true

[ui]
DEFAULT_THEME = arc-green
THEMES        = arc-green

[openid]
ENABLE_OPENID_SIGNIN = false
ENABLE_OPENID_SIGNUP = false

Where is this repo, actually?

github < mirror > gitea < mirror > soft-serve

This repo is hosted on github but mirrored to my self-hosted gitea instance. Once there it will be "mirrored" to an instance of soft-serve.

github

git.dayl.in

soft-serve

ssh -p 23231 git.dayl.in
