Git¶

The platform hosts an internal Git server (Forgejo), used in particular as a project source for Apache Hop. Two entry points:

Git (bottom of the sidebar): your personal Git account — accessible to everyone;
Settings → Git: administration of the Forgejo instance itself — platform administrators only.

My Git account¶

Git page

On first visit, your Forgejo identity is provisioned automatically. The page shows:

a link to your Forgejo profile;
your personal access token: show it to use in a git clone https://user:token@… or a credential manager. Regenerate my key creates a new one if the old one is lost or compromised;
your organizations and your repositories.

Create an organization: a space for grouping repositories, of which you become the owner.
Create a repository: personal or within one of your organizations, private by default, initialized with a main branch — immediately usable as the Git source of a Hop application.
Collaborators (on a repository): add a platform user with a read, write or admin level — autocomplete searches by name or username.
Members (on an organization): add members, who get full rights on the organization's repositories.
Delete a repository: only possible if you administer it; irreversible.

The Forgejo instance is unique for the whole platform. From this tab, an administrator can:

deploy it if it doesn't exist yet (the generic catalog refuses any second instance);
monitor it and configure it like a standard application (resources, restart, details).

Shared instance

Changing the Forgejo instance's resources restarts the Git service for all users of the platform — do this knowingly.
