- Resolves forgejo/forgejo#10849 - Yes, the referrer policy is causing cross-origin protection to fail. Why? Because someone really cared about privacy, the referrer policy was set to no-referrer. So no `Referrer` HTTP header and `Origin` is either omited or set to `null`, because hey the browser isn't allowed to leak it via that header either. The new cross-origin protection relies on Sec-Fetch metadata to determine if the request is same-origin or not. This metadata is only sent to trustworthy origins, and thus not when you visit Forgejo on your intranet. But the new protection has a fallback to compare the Origin to the Host header... but the Origin header was conviently set to `null` to protect the user's privacy. - We now set the referrer policy to strict-origin, which means only for same-origin requests a Origin header is set. For cross-origin the behavior is unchanged and the user's privacy is preserved.

Welcome to Forgejo
Hi there! Tired of big platforms playing monopoly? Providing Git hosting for your project, friends, company or community? Forgejo (/for'd͡ʒe.jo/ inspired by forĝejo – the Esperanto word for forge) has you covered with its intuitive interface, light and easy hosting and a lot of built-in functionality.
Forgejo was created in 2022 because we think that the project should be owned by an independent community. If you second that, then Forgejo is for you! Our promise: Independent Free/Libre Software forever!
What does Forgejo offer?
If you like any of the following, Forgejo is literally meant for you:
- Lightweight: Forgejo can easily be hosted on nearly every machine. Running on a Raspberry? Small cloud instance? No problem!
- Project management: Besides Git hosting, Forgejo offers issues, pull requests, wikis, kanban boards and much more to coordinate with your team.
- Publishing: Have something to share? Use releases to host your software for download, or use the package registry to publish it for docker, npm and many other package managers.
- Customizable: Want to change your look? Change some settings? There are many config switches to make Forgejo work exactly like you want.
- Powerful: Organizations & team permissions, CI integration, Code Search, LDAP, OAuth and much more. If you have advanced needs, Forgejo has you covered.
- Privacy: From update checker to default settings: Forgejo is built to be privacy first for you and your crew.
- Federation: (WIP) We are actively working to connect software forges with each other through ActivityPub, and create a collaborative network of personal instances.
