Forgejo is the community-governed fork of Gitea, created in 2022 under Codeberg's stewardship after Gitea's commercialization, and is the software that powers Codeberg itself. It provides self-hosted Git hosting with pull requests, issues, packages, and Forgejo Actions, a GitHub-Actions-compatible CI. Entirely free and copyleft-licensed, it has become the default recommendation for a fully community-run forge. It suits teams and communities that want Gitea-style hosting with non-commercial governance.
