Of course there are, but everything I've tried was a paint to setup. GitBucket was the first project that was very easy to setup: in an existing Tomcat (or other container), just drop the WAR file, and everything works. Also no dedicated machine is required for this (I host it along with other applications)

For testing you can even run it with 'java -jar gitbucket.war', and five seconds later you have it up and running.
Ease of install is a feature that I can definitely appreciate.
