Pagure

A lightweight, git-centric forge for hosting projects, docs and issues.

About Pagure

Pagure is a git-centred forge written in Python that lets you host source code together with its documentation, an issue tracker and pull requests for community contributions. Designed as a foundation for federated and decentralised development, it can be self-hosted with Docker or packages and suits open-source projects and organisations that want a lightweight, flexible alternative to larger code-hosting platforms under their own control.
