Forgejo is a community-driven Free Software project under the umbrella of Codeberg, a non-profit association in Germany, that develops a code forge platform similar to GitHub, and that is a drop-in replacement for Gitea.

    Codeberg was using gitea so far. Now gitea has been eated up a for profit company and the gitea trademark belongs to said company. They plan on making money by selling services for an enterprise edition like github does. I think enterprise edition code will be close sourced too in part.

    So the community forked gitea and changed its name to forgejo. Forgejo trademark is owned by codeberg which is a non-profit.
