Re: "Any suggestions for a self-hosted git server with an..."
I've been using Gitea for a few years now. It's running quite happily on a Raspberry Pi 4 behind an Apache reverse proxy for SSL on Void Linux. It's the same computer that runs this capsule.
If I were starting from scratch I'd likely go with Forjego, because Gitea is now basically an open core project due to the company which took it over. One of these days I'll probably switch, but I've just got too much going on with school to be screwing around with my server much.
Gitea and Forjego are really easy to stand up. if you want access over the Internet you'll want to set up a reverse proxy to provide SSL and make sure to open a port for ssh access to the machine running Gitea/Forjego. The reverse proxy can be on another machine if desired and I used to do that in order to split up the services a bit. Also, I'm just using Apache because I'm old and it's what I've always used. Nginx or any other capable web server that can function as a proxy would be fine.

thanks. I've got nginx running my writefreely server so I'd probably just use that.
how the heck do you say forgejo?
For personal projects, I enjoy using https://fossil-scm.org/ It is the better distributed version control system and has a lot of goodies like a wiki, built into a single executable.
Any suggestions for a self-hosted git server with an interface? I only have some toy projects so I'm looking for something lightweight for personal projects. Gogs seems like it might fit the bill...
