OneDev
Git server with CI/CD, Kanban, and packages
The Lens
OneDev bundles Git hosting, CI/CD pipelines, issue tracking, Kanban boards, and a package registry into a single Java application you run on your own server. One install, one database, no separate services to wire together.
Self-hosting is free under MIT. You get unlimited repos, users, and CI/CD minutes. The CI/CD runs Docker-based pipelines with caching, parallel jobs, and build promotion. Issue tracking includes custom fields, boards, and time tracking. The package registry supports Maven, npm, PyPI, NuGet, and more.
The paid tier is enterprise support and features: SAML/LDAP SSO, audit logging, high availability clustering. Starts at $15/user/month.
The catch: it's Java, which means it needs more RAM than you'd expect. Plan for 2GB minimum, 4GB+ for active use. The UI is functional but not as polished as GitLab or Gitea. And the community is smaller, so when you hit an edge case, you're reading source code, not Stack Overflow. If you just need Git hosting without the CI/CD, Gitea is lighter.
Free vs Self-Hosted vs Paid
open core**Self-hosted (free):** MIT license. Unlimited repos, users, CI/CD pipelines, package registry, issue tracking, code review. No artificial limits.
**Enterprise ($15/user/mo):** Adds SAML SSO, LDAP integration, audit logging, high availability, and priority support.
**The math:** For a 5-person team, GitHub Team is $4/user/mo ($20/mo) but CI/CD minutes are limited (3,000/mo). GitLab Premium is $29/user/mo ($145/mo). OneDev free gives you unlimited everything on a $10-20/mo VPS. The savings are significant.
**When to pay:** Once you need SSO for compliance or HA for uptime guarantees. For most small teams, the free tier is everything you need.
**Infrastructure cost:** Plan $10-20/mo for a VPS (4GB RAM minimum). CI/CD jobs need more resources depending on what you're building.
Self-host free with unlimited everything. Enterprise SSO/HA is $15/user/mo.
