bernhard Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Thx to @Robin S I realized that GitHub now also offers unlimited private Repos for free. In some discussion about it I found another interesting alternative (if you don't want to host private code on external servers): https://gitea.io/en-us/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostKobrakai Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Gitea is great. I had gogs (which gitea forked) running on a server of mine for a while, but gitea is more active and open. But I must also say I only use it locally to move repos from my laptop to the desktop for all the WIP stuff, which doesn't need to be in some cloud already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interestingly it seems that not everyone is happy about free private repos on GitHub: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2019/01/free-github-accounts-now-offer-private-repos/ Quote This change, however, fundamentally altered the site, and not for the best. Given the option, many developers may now find themselves tempted to make all those little personal projects private rather than public. Many's the time I've heard a developer promise to release the source to a neat little program "just as soon as I tidy the code" or similar. That tidying never happens, or at least, it's never enough to get the code into a state the developer feels is satisfactory to unleash on the world. As a result, many programs that would previously have been published as open source will now be closed up forever. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
