For those who are using prometheus and also use apt-dater to control updates of multiple servers I have created a new tool to automatically generate the hosts configuration file. Hopefully this not only useful to me :)

I really love this move! I'm glad that I'm part of the community and free contributors 8)

You can compare it with that. It's just built up entirely transparent and open and backed by a non-profit organization.

But some (like Gitea) are working on it to start hosting it on their own. Gitea will also get federation features to make contributions between independent Gitea instances possible.

But even when it starts to host, it will get GitHub OAuth2, just to keep the barrier small to receive contributions.

The best way to compare the features could be https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/comparison/ which is a really fair comparision.

Edit: This list have been created on best efford, if you find any wrong information a pull request is always welcome.

Gitea got code and issue search, the code search just needs to be enabled within the config because the indexing process takes up more resources, that's why it's disabled by default.

There are multiple tracking issues on the gitea tracker for federated features, so hopefully gitea will provide features like that.

Could you please point me to them? Mostly for curiosity, and maybe add my two cents, as someone who constantly feels this need in a specific community.

https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/issues/1612 https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/issues/1299 https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/issues/184

These issues and some others pop up if you search for federated.

If you like to run java services you could do that...

You don't need to run Java services.

Running gitbucket is simply "Java -jar gitbucket.jar"

JVM performance is pretty much world-class (and has been for many years). Golang and JVM compete neck to neck at top of the performance charts. Remember that startup performance is not what Java optimised for - it's long running processes like any web server or api.

And I'm far more excited by Graal than any programming language breakthrough over the past few years ( https://youtu.be/_7yIUkP5LiQ)

Ok, let me rephrase that, if you like to run the JVM do it :)

It just means Gitea now also got the emoji reactions like Github already got.

I remember this question via discuss, and I personally said that this list will be anyway always out of date.

If you want to compare Gogs and Gitea you have to compare the feature list.
