GitBucket is a self-hosted Git platform that provides a web interface for repository hosting and collaborative software development. It offers many of the workflows familiar to users of GitHub, including repository browsing, pull requests, issues and project wikis.
The application places particular emphasis on straightforward administration and extensibility. Teams can begin with its core functionality and add integrations or additional features through plugins.
GitBucket also provides compatibility with parts of the GitHub API, making it useful in environments where existing development tools expect GitHub-style interfaces. Its combination of repository hosting and collaboration tools makes it suitable for organisations wanting to manage their own development infrastructure.
This is free and open source software.
