Gogs is a self-hosted Git service that offers a lightweight, fast, and easy-to-install solution for managing Git repositories. Built with Go, Gogs can run on multiple platforms and requires minimal resources, making it ideal for individuals and small teams.

Features of Gogs:

• Lightweight and high-performance Git server with a low memory footprint.
• Cross-platform support including Linux, Windows, macOS, and ARM devices like Raspberry Pi.
• Easy web-based interface for repository management, user administration, and issue tracking.
• Built-in SSH and HTTPS Git access with fine-grained permission controls.

• Simple deployment using binary, Docker, or system packages.

Credentials for accessing the Gogs admin panel are typically created during the initial web-based setup and stored in the backend database (SQLite, MySQL, or PostgreSQL).

    
To run Gogs manually after installation, use the following command:
    # ./gogs web
