    Setup Gitness in 30 seconds

    Install with a single Docker command. Lightweight enough to run on a $4 Digital Ocean droplet.

    Why is Gitness on the news and why is it being considered as the de-facto alternative to GitHub? Why is GitLab/SourceHut/Forgejo (and Codeberg)/Gitea not being considered?

    Forgejo for example has almost a 1:1 compatibility with GitHub Actions and it didn’t make the news. If you were to replace GitHub, Codeberg or Forgejo is a very good replacement for it.

        Yeah, of course. I just wanted to know if this one has any killer features or is just an alternative

    Maybe somebody could suggest they implement federation? Otherwise it’ll just be another bunch of disconnected islands each requiring contributors to go through the same setup procedure over and over again.

    My apologies if I’m saying something stupid, but I see that this is built on top of Drone, which stopped being Open Source several years ago. Does this means that Drone, as part of Gitness, has become Open Source again?

      With this release, drone is now apache-licensed. From what I’ve been able to find, the developers have been active in other discussions but avoided the topic of why they went open-source when drone wasn’t.

      A few developers that forked Drone into Woodpecker CI when it stopped being open-source are anticipating another “rug-pull” in a few years with Gitness. I’m a bit skeptical myself, but Harness does have other open-source projects and Drone’s decision to stop being open-source predates their acquisition.
