DietPi-Software | Forgejo

[Cs137]

Since gitea has been forked by codeberg, it would be nice if the resulted fork, forgejo, would be supported by the dietpi software repository.

Best regards & many thanks for the work and efforts invested to maintain this nice distribution!

Background of the fork: https://forgejo.codeberg.page/@main/faq/

Why fork Gitea?

In October 2022 the domains and trademark of Gitea were transferred to a for-profit company without knowledge or approval of the community. Despite writing an open letter, the takeover was later confirmed. The goal of Forgejo is to continue developing the code with a healthy democratic governance.

Trying to find info from Gitea side, but the website is down: https://gitea.io/

Sounds very reasonable to add Forgejo, also since as a soft fork the Gitea implementation can be basically copied.

[Cs137]

Thanks for picking the request up! I am not aware of any statement from gitea on the topic besides this tweet, where they said the following:

As we've mentioned elsewhere, we wish forgejo all the best and are hopeful we can continue working together.

[Joulinar]

Should that be a replacement of Gitea or an additional software title?

[MichaIng]

Additional.

[Cs137]

Are there any updates on this request?

I'd prefer Forgejo over Gitea as well.
