[Get started](https://panel.deplomo.com/signup)[Back to marketplace](/marketplace) ## Why deploy Gitea on Deplomo? Run Gitea with the resources your repositories and CI/CD workloads require, and manage access with your team. ### Lightweight Git hosting built with Go Gitea is written in Go and is designed to run with modest resources. Requirements vary with repository size and usage. ### Protect access to your source code Host private Git repositories and manage access for your development team. ### Works with Actions and CI/CD pipelines Use Gitea Actions to run automated tests and release workflows. ### Manage organizations, teams and access Create teams, organizations, SSH keys and access tokens, and configure branch permissions. ## Gitea FAQs Answers to common questions about Gitea, repository migration and private Git hosting: What is Gitea, and how do development teams use it? Is Gitea a GitHub alternative for development teams? How does Gitea compare with GitLab? How do I migrate GitHub repositories to Gitea? Does Gitea support SSH and HTTPS? ## Gitea guide: private Git hosting in the cloud Private Git hosting gives teams control over source code access, repository administration and deployment workflows. Gitea provides a lightweight, self-hosted alternative for projects that need an independent development environment. ### What is Gitea, and how can teams use it? Gitea is a self-hosted, open-source Git service written in Go. Teams can use it to manage repositories, pull requests, code reviews, issues and branches. Gitea is designed for lighter deployments than larger platforms such as [GitLab hosting](/marketplace/apps/gitlab) . You can also use [Deploy from GitHub](/support/docs/paas/deploy) to deploy from Gitea and other Git repositories on Deplomo. ### Manual private Git server setup compared with cloud hosting Setting up Git repositories on a Linux server can involve configuring a web server and database, enabling SSH access, maintaining certificates and planning regular backups. A vulnerable server can put private code at risk. When international service creation is available, deploy Gitea from a marketplace template and review its network, storage, domain and certificate settings before connecting repositories. ### Compare Gitea on Deplomo with public GitHub and self-hosted GitLab The table compares technical and operational factors:
| Feature | Gitea on Deplomo | Public GitHub | Self-hosted GitLab |
|---|---|---|---|
| Source code privacy and access control | Private repositories on a self-hosted Git service | Repository storage follows the hosted provider’s policies | You manage the service and its maintenance |
| Resource requirements | Designed for relatively low resource use; actual RAM depends on workload | Hosted shared service (SaaS) | Resource needs vary by deployment and workload |
| Git pull and push performance | Depends on the server location, network route and repository size | May depend on internet connectivity and network latency | May need ongoing Docker cache configuration |
| SSH and HTTPS access | SSH access and custom domains with SSL where supported | Supported, subject to server configuration | Configure SSH ports and server access |
| Pricing and monthly costs | Fixed monthly EUR package pricing | Some team features or larger repositories may require a paid plan | May require additional hardware resources |
