Gitly is a lightweight, self-hosted GitHub/GitLab alternative written in V, distributed as a single sub-1 MB binary with compiled templates. It supports git hosting with multiple users and repos, git push, and planned CI/CD features, backed by PostgreSQL or SQLite.
Use cases
- self-host a lightweight github alternative
- host private git repositories on a cheap vps
- replace gitlab with a minimal low-memory git server
- run a code hosting platform without javascript
- compare binary performance across commits in ci
When to choose
- you want an extremely lightweight git hosting server with minimal ram usage
- you prefer a single-binary deployment with no javascript requirement
- you want to use or showcase the V language
When to avoid
- you need pull requests, ssh access, or other mature forge features
- you need a production-ready, battle-tested platform
- you want a large ecosystem of integrations and plugins
