Order Gitea from the Marketplace App tab as shown in how to order a VPS with a one-click app. When the install card on your server page shows the finished result, follow the steps below.
What you get
Gitea, a light self-hosted Git service, installed with Docker. It needs 1 GB of memory and takes 4 to 8 minutes.
1. Finish the install page
Open the address on the server page: http://your-server-ip:3000/. Finish the install page. The first account you register becomes the administrator, so do this straight away.
2. Push a repository
Create a repository in the web page, then on your computer:
git remote add origin http://your-server-ip:3000/you/repo.git
git push -u origin mainGit over SSH uses port 2222 on this server, because port 22 is used for the server's own SSH login.
3. Domain and HTTPS
Put a domain in front of Gitea with Nginx Proxy Manager, or point a domain at the server (guide).
Next steps
- Connect to your VPS with SSH to run the commands above.
- Secure your new VPS before you put real data on it.
