- *Gitea* ("Git with a cup of tea") is a web-based source-code management system
- for Git repositories. It is written in Go and is released under the
- link:licenses/MIT[MIT] license. Gitea was started in 2015^<<1>>^ as a
- community-managed fork of link:Gogs_(software)[Gogs] in response to the
- single-maintainer management model adopted by Gogs^<<2>>^.
- = History
- When the development of Gogs slowed down for a prolonged period of time in 2015
- driven by a lack of activity of the project administrator^<<3>>^, some of its
- contributors decided to fork the project to a new one called `go-gitea`.
- Eventually, go-gitea was merged into Gogs once the administrator was back, and
- further development of the fork stopped. One year later however, the situation
- repeated and for this reason some of the Gogs contributors decided to continue
- the work on `go-gitea` in order to promote a community approach with more than
- one maintainer^<<2>>^. The fork was later renamed "Gitea".
