Working with Git Repositories

On these pages, you will learn how to use the Git version control system with Codeberg.

There are 2 ways to interact with a Git repository hosted on Codeberg:

  1. via the command-line, either through SSH or HTTP.
  2. using the web UI

Option 1 requires a Git client of your choice installed on your local system.

We recommend the use of the SSH protocol.
It offers improved security through key-based access (stronger protection than a regular password) and better ease of use (no need to provide credentials on every push).
