Comment: Note to AFC Reviewers: This draft is for a title that was previously an article, but was then cut down to a redirect. If this draft is accepted, the history should be preserved. Do not tag the redirect for G6. If you find that this draft should be accepted, and do not have the Page Mover privilege, please request assistance in moving the redirect to preserve the history. Reviewers should check the history and verify whether there was a consensus to cut the article down to a redirect, or whether the action was taken boldly without discussion. If there was a consensus for the cutdown, do not accept this draft without verifying that the draft improves the article or that consensus has changed. If in doubt, please discuss.There have been articles at Forgejo only briefly, that were cut down to redirects by their authors. Robert McClenon (talk) 19:54, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

Forgejo (Esperanto pronunciation: [forˈd͡ʒe.jo])[2] is a software package designed for hosting a forge using the Git version control system to aid with software development. The package allows developers to use collaborative features like bug tracking, code review, continuous integration, kanban boards, issue tickets, and wikis with their projects.[3] The package is designed to be self-hosted by developers, and a public instance is provided to try out the user interface, however forges hosted by organizations such as Codeberg are mainly used. Forgejo can be hosted on all platforms that support the Go runtime, including Linux, macOS, and Microsoft Windows.[4]
History
[edit]Forgejo was initially created as a fork of Gitea (itself a fork of Gogs, another forge package) after a newly created for-profit limited corporation founded by two maintainers named Lunny Xiao and Matti Ranta silently transferred Gitea's trademarks and began to move towards an open-core model, with the company offering enterprise services for hosting forges using a specialized version of Gitea containing exclusive features.[5][6] Codeberg, one of the major forges using Gitea at the time, then migrated to Forgejo and has become the effective owner of the project.[7][8]
While initially being a soft fork (a fork that remains in sync with its upstream counterpart), Forgejo eventually split completely from Gitea following version 1.21, as maintaining support with Gitea became more complex as new features and changes were implemented that were distinct or not present in Gitea, as well as to liberate software development from the shackles of proprietary tools
.[9][10]
A future objective of Forgejo is to utilize the ActivityPub protocol most commonly used by the Fediverse to federate forges via ForgeFed, an extension of ActivityPub designed to support the features most commonly used by forges.[11] An implementation of this standard in Forgejo has been estimated to be available in 2024, while other forge packages such as GitLab have also begun work on implementing support for ForgeFed.[12]
