+# Gitea
+
+Self hosted Git
+
+Followed instructions on Gitea page: https://docs.gitea.com/next/installation/install-with-docker
+
+### Steps
+	
+1. Create a new user to own the gitea folder.
+
+`sudo groupadd gitea && sudo useradd giteauser && sudo usermod -a -G gitea giteauser && chown -r gitea:giteauser .`
+
+2. Run via Docker Compose
+
+`docker-compose up -d`
+
+3. Test postgresql
+
+`docker exec -it gitea_database bash`
+
+`psql -h 127.0.0.1 -p 5432 -U gitea`
+
+4. Stop server and set value in app.ini.
+
+Add magic line to /data/persistent/gitea/gitea/gitea/conf/app.ini because local workers will otherwise assume they can use our custom port 3300 to reach services locally. Have to specify local url here.
+
+This goes in the [server] section. (https://docs.gitea.com/next/administration/config-cheat-sheet)
+
+`LOCAL_ROOT_URL = http://localhost:3000/`
+
+Then start containers again.
+
+5. Go to xxx.xxx.xx.xxx:3300 and fill out initial config.
+
+Some things that were weird: 
+
+- could not use any port that wasnt default postgresql (5432)
+
+- had to make sure to specify database container by the right name. Removed custom name and used just "database".
