Gitea is open source version control software. It is a self-hosted Git service whose stated focus is on staying lightweight and fast, which is why it is often chosen where a full development platform would be more than is needed.
Gitea is listed as self-hosted and open source, so it is not necessarily European. It becomes a European alternative through where you run it: on your own server or with a European host. It suits small teams and individuals who want to keep their repositories off the large code hosting platforms.
Data and operations
Verified operational dependencies, shown separately from ownership and from the service's core data hosting.
Public website
Why this matters
Public DNS routes website visits through Cloudflare. Visitor IP addresses and request metadata can reach this non-European provider; this does not identify the core service's data location.
Incoming business email
Why this matters
Published MX records route incoming business email through Zoho Mail. Correspondent details and message content can therefore enter this non-European provider's systems; MX does not reveal the configured storage region.
Authorised outbound email
Why this matters
This domain authorises Zoho Mail to send email. If active, recipient details and message content can be processed by this non-European provider. SPF does not reveal its configured storage region.
