It is possible to migrate source code (including history) from GithHub to CodeBerg in just a few commands, and it is free for public repositories.
So I started there.
Since I like it, I'm looking into self-hosting my own Forgejo server. I expect that to be a smooth transition, since CodeBerg runs Forgejo under the hood.
Edit:
Tip: If it is public, update the GitHub project README with a link to the new location at CodeBerg.
Oh, interesting.
I'm looking for strictly private repositories to share with a handful of people, but I also don't mind paying.
How much maintenance does forjero require? I don't really have the capacity for much of that at the moment (thus, the paid solution search lol). Maybe I'll look into codeberg. Are they secure?
I haven't looked into their security, sorry. I have only moved public repos, so far.
I hope to try running my own forego soonish. I'll try to remember to report back.
Codeberg seems to be for public repos only, so my current use case. But forjero does look really nice. I really appreciate your feedback, by the way!
