Folks,

I'm looking for a self-hosted GitHub alternative that I can just plop into Portainer as a docker-compose and get working.

My main interest is in something that sort of works with GitHub - if there's a way I can pull repos from GitHub into this self-hosted git using a webUI and maybe even push my changes to repos on GitHub, that would be nice. I'm not hard-and-fast on this though as this is mostly an experiment right now and I don't know why I need this.

What are you folks using to host your super secret local code and why?

And is hilariously overkill for what OP seems to want. It's a pretty large and heavy package that comes with a whole lot of (for OP unnecessary) features.

My experience was that they were definitely overkill until they weren't, and I was glad to be comfortable in the UI when I wanted to start playing with more advanced features. Something like the sameersbn/gitlab docker image can get you started and grow with you a ton.
