Self-hosters protecting Git repositories
Worth noticing
Its backups include refs and objects, plus pull-request, check, and import records; release binaries are unsigned.

Field notes

Installation paths include Homebrew, npm, Arch, and release archives; package-manager coverage differs because each method needs Git with git-http-backend, which Homebrew and Arch install for users. Backups include refs and objects plus pull-request, check, and import records, settings, and SHA-256 hashes; restore creates a new installation. The release archive binaries are not signed, and the page directs users to check them against SHA256SUMS.
