Gitea - Git with a cup of tea

View this document in Chinese

## Purpose The goal of this project is to make the easiest, fastest, and most painless way of setting up a self-hosted Git service. As Gitea is written in Go, it works across **all** the platforms and architectures that are supported by Go, including Linux, macOS, and Windows on x86, amd64, ARM and PowerPC architectures. You can try it out using [the online demo](https://try.gitea.io/). This project has been [forked](https://blog.gitea.io/2016/12/welcome-to-gitea/) from [Gogs](https://gogs.io) since November of 2016, but a lot has changed. ## Building From the root of the source tree, run: TAGS="bindata" make build or if SQLite support is required: TAGS="bindata sqlite sqlite_unlock_notify" make build The `build` target is split into two sub-targets: - `make backend` which requires [Go Stable](https://go.dev/dl/), required version is defined in [go.mod](/go.mod). - `make frontend` which requires [Node.js LTS](https://nodejs.org/en/download/) or greater and Internet connectivity to download npm dependencies. When building from the official source tarballs which include pre-built frontend files, the `frontend` target will not be triggered, making it possible to build without Node.js and Internet connectivity. Parallelism (`make -j `) is not supported.

If you have found a vulnerability in the project, please write privately to **security@gitea.io**. Thanks! ## Translating Translations are done through Crowdin. If you want to translate to a new language ask one of the managers in the Crowdin project to add a new language there. You can also just create an issue for adding a language or ask on discord on the #translation channel. If you need context or find some translation issues, you can leave a comment on the string or ask on Discord. For general translation questions there is a section in the docs. Currently a bit empty but we hope to fill it as questions pop up. https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/translation-guidelines/ [](https://crowdin.com/project/gitea) ## Further information For more information and instructions about how to install Gitea, please look at our [documentation](https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/).
