Setting up your own instance of a bit server is free.

If you want issues, CI etc... Then you need a local version of github which you will pay for.

[undecisive]

Well... unless you use something like gitlab https://about.gitlab.com/ - which is also free, and has support for issues, CI, etc. (snap!)

Or GitLab. That's free and easy to self host.

[apple4ever]

Bingo. People think its hard to self host. Its not. They have an omnipackage that you install. You run updates. You enable the automatic backups. Problem solved!

[lykr0n]

But maintenance is where people can have issues. GitLab is complex.

Personally, I prefer something more lightweight and for some time I've been using gogs - https://github.com/gogits/gogs (so far so good)

[majewsky]

Is gogs maintained anymore? Everyone I know switched to the community fork, gitea.

Wow, I haven't peeked at the commit history for some time. Thanks for the info!
