I'm not familiar with git, but can you post a read-only version publicly so others can still access all the commit history but not be subjected to pull requests?

That's pretty much what git over https does by default (is it even possible to do read-write to a git repo over https instead of ssh?).

    Yes; it's not only possible but very common: https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/git-basics/about-remo...

    (IIRC it is in fact actually even sometimes preferable from a security standpoint; or at least that's the tentative conclusion I've reached under a few specific circumstances over the years, although the exact details elude my memory at the moment.)

If you have somewhere to host it you can go with https://forgejo.org/ and have control over everything.

    Git doesn’t even need to be “hosted” in the traditional sense. The whole point of it is that it is distributed and you don’t actually need a centralized source of truth.
