also fits the description of "Git hosting that never leaves Europe".

Regardless of that, these don't seen to play for the same audience.

Codeberg Terms of Use[^0] makes it clear that it's only for "projects covered by a licence for free and open source software, free and open source hardware, or free cultural works", and "You must not share projects that mostly consist of code written by "generative AI"-tools". They also only provide private repos where the FOSS system need it for their infra or what not, and not just for any purpose.

These are totally fine for Codeberg to do, and it's wonderful for FOSS!!

However it is not a viable place for many projects that are on GitHub/GitLab now and would want to migrate, say: any commercial project, that would need "permission-free" private repos, or when the teams want to decided themselves how much generative AI their developers should use, not their Git-hosting provider...

So yeah, different ballpark.

Codeberg seems to focus on OSS whereas pushin seems to focus on enterprise/commercial uses?

  • That’s right. There are plenty of good options for OSS but few to none focused on both, public and private especially with team/enterprise support. That’s why I created Pushin :) simply to have a place to store both my public and private repos but still retain a community which you dont get on a self-hosted solution
