History

Codeberg e.V. was founded in September 2018 with 7 founding members, and launched Codeberg.org in January 2019.[4] The organization selected the European Union for their headquarters and computer infrastructure, due to members' concerns that a software project repository hosted in the United States could be removed if a malicious actor made bad faith copyright claims under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.[5] After one month, the Codeberg e.V. organization had 25 members, and Codeberg.org hosted 333 repositories with 379 users.[6]

In December of 2022, Codeberg launched Forgejo, a soft fork of Gitea, in response to a controversial change in direction of the Gitea Project.[7] In February of 2024, the Forgejo project decided to hard fork from Gitea[8], citing reduced maintenance overhead and stability reasons.

As of October 2025, Codeberg hosts 300,000 repositories and has 195,000 registered user accounts approximately.[3]
