## Gitea
Gitea is identical to Github - it is a repository that contains code. Github is owned by an external entity and one needs a paid account for certain features (especially for private repositories). On the other hand `gitea.iitdh.ac.in` is run and operated by IIT-DH so all features are available to all IITDH users.
