==========================
 Gitea internal Git server
==========================


Usage
=====

Gitea is used as internal Git server, mainly to support FluxCD's workflow
without requiring a full blown Gitlab instance to be up and running already.

Known issues
============


Initial push fails
-------------------

Bootstrapping the cluster did fail sometimes with an error message that the
remote did hang up unexpectedly.

This seems to be related to the local Git repository.

Running a garbage collect on the local repository did unlock the situation::

   git gc --aggressive

The cause is not yet fully understood.
