Installation

These packages are easy to use! Just download your preferred package, install it with apt install ./forgejo-*-linux-amd64.deb and point your browser to http://localhost:3000. The package will set up Forgejo as a systemd service and take care of creating a new user for Forgejo, so all you need to do is set it up to your liking.

The default username for Forgejo's user is forgejo, but it can easily be changed prior to installation, for example if you would rather run Forgejo as user git. All you need to do is download the files from the etc folder in this repository, put them in the respective places on your system, and customize them to your liking. When you use apt to install the Forgejo package, it will create a new user with the specified settings.
