Getting started

Four steps take you from nothing to a repository on Gitza. If you are bringing existing projects across from another service, do the first two here and then follow Migrating to Gitza instead of creating repositories by hand.

Create your account

Accounts are created at git.gitza.co.za ; until launch, the waitlist is the way in. Free public and private repositories from the first minute, with no card asked for. Details.

Connect your machine

Add an SSH key, which is the way most people push, or generate an access token if you prefer HTTPS or need one for a tool. SSH · HTTPS and tokens.

Create a repository

New repositories are created from the + menu at the top of every page. You choose the name, whether it is public or private, and whether to start it with a README. Details.

Push


git remote add origin git@git.gitza.co.za:you/your-repo.git
git push -u origin main

Your code is now at git.gitza.co.za/you/your-repo, in South Africa.
