By ‘Git instances’ they mean Gogs instances that allow open registration. I know most of the community moved from Gogs to Gitea, and then to Forgejo, but thought this was still worth noting.

    Forgejo has all that, and then you can achieve “federation” by virtue of pushing to whatever remote. I wasn’t suggesting people use git itself (which is possible). I just meant that it’s distributed as opposed to centralized like Subverison is.

      no, forgejo doesnt have “all that”. you are totally missing the point. git is federated, of course, but the added features of forgejo or any other known git forge is not (yet).

      Well but distributed != federated. Which is why Forgejo is currently working on a federation feature.
