[$] Forgejo makes a full break from Gitea
The world of open-source "forges" is becoming a little more fragmented. The Forgejo project is a software-development platform that started as a "soft
" fork of Gitea in late 2022. On February 16, Forgejo announced its intent to become a "hard fork
" of Gitea to help address its mission of community-controlled development and to "liberate software development from the shackles of proprietary tools
". In a world where proprietary tools cast a long shadow over open-source development that's a welcome sentiment-if the project can deliver.
