Code Check-in
Self-hosted git with branch protection
Easy
Overview
A self-hosted git repository that serves as the single source of truth for all code, configuration, and infrastructure definitions.
Why It Matters
Single source of truth. You own your code history. No vendor lock-in.
The Risk
Your git repository is your single source of truth. Without self-hosted control, you're dependent on external services for code access, vulnerable to account lockouts, and subject to changing terms or pricing.
Implementation Components
A complete implementation of this capability includes:
- Self-hosted git server (Forgejo, Gitea, GitLab CE)
- Branch protection rules preventing direct commits to main
- Webhook integration for CI/CD pipelines
- Repository backup and disaster recovery plan
- Access control and team management
- Documentation of repository structure and workflow
Implementation Pattern
- 1Choose a self-hosted git solution
- 2Configure branch protection
- 3Set up webhooks for CI
