Gitea requires a database which is unwanted feature for "git server" in my little world.

I'm just looking for "website" (read: interface) that list files over HTTPS, with the ability to show nice looking diffs. Some sort of ssh keys(?) to prevent unauthorized access etc.

Maybe something like gitweb? https://git-scm.com/docs/gitweb

I have not used it before, but it seems like it follows your requirements (Except auth using SSH keys maybe, but that could be a task for e.g. Nginx)

Thanks, I discovered "git instaweb" which is based on gitweb. It's nice and offers mostly what I'm after,but the 100% layout width is terrible (no opt to configure it).

Maybe something like gitolite then?

I've not used it personally though, so no idea how well it works in practise.

Thanks! Gitolite doesn't offer any UI for what I see. Also to set it up is too complicated.

I just found about "git instaweb" (developed by Git authors, but it's extra OS package) - it works locally, probably what I was looking for (minus the 100% width page layout).

BTW There's Gitblit is someone's fancy hosting Java app.
