How to setup a local Git server on Windows in 5 minutes using Gitea

What kind of a database would you recommend for storing assets? Did you have a chance to test and compare the efficiency of different ones and how do they manage to handle repositories which contain hundreds of gigabytes of data?

[@anchorpoint2988]

I think with SQLite you will be fine. The size GB or TB, doesn't matter at all. What matters is the amount of commits and the file count. But with a decent machine you should be good to go.

is it possible to use GitBash to manage repos on Gitea like how you manage repos on Github?

I guess this will help you: docs.gitea.com/administration/command-line

Do I need to enable version control within the Unreal Engine?

[@anchorpoint2988]

You don't need to. The problem with the build in Unreal Git plugin is, that it's not supporting LFS and will slow you down each time when you do a save. It's better to submit with the Git client.

How would a remote user access it? I would guess we could we just open up the 3000 port on router and do some port forwarding?

That might be not enough, because then the connection would be insecure. You may need to look into ssl certificates as well for an https connection. The other thing is that you need a static IP address.
