EU-Sovereign · Privacy-First

Your code belongs to you.
Hosted in Europe.

Powered by Forgejo. Zero AI training. 100% your code.

AI-assisted, AI-generated, or fully vibe-coded — all welcome here.

A privacy-first GitHub alternative powered by Forgejo — for developers who refuse to let their source code train someone else's model. A drop-in replacement for your existing Git workflow, but your repositories stay strictly within the EU.

See it in action

No new commands. No new workflow. Just push your code to an EU-hosted Forgejo instance.

~/projects/your-app
$ git remote add origin https://git.gitbuild.dev/you/your-app.git
 $ git push -u origin main
 # Pushed. Hosted in the EU. Never trained on. Done.
 $ _

Data stays in the EU

Your repositories, issues, and metadata never leave European jurisdiction. Full GDPR compliance, EU data residency, no transatlantic transfers.

No AI scraping, ever

Your code is never used for LLM training. No crawling, no model ingestion, no third-party data sharing. We don't sell your data.

AI code welcome

Copilot, Claude, Codex, or fully vibe-coded — how you write your code is your business. Some Git platforms now ban AI-generated projects. We don't.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about European Git hosting on gitbuild.dev.

Where exactly is my code stored?

All repositories, metadata, and backups reside on dedicated infrastructure within the European Union. No data is transferred outside the EU, and we do not rely on US-based cloud providers for storage or processing.

Do you train AI on my repositories?

Never. Your source code is not used for LLM training, model ingestion, or any form of automated analysis beyond what is required to operate the service. This prohibition is contractual and technical — we have no data-sharing relationships with AI companies.

Can I host AI-generated or vibe-coded projects?

Yes — welcome aboard. We have no content policy on how your code is written: use Copilot, Claude, Codex, or none at all. Some platforms now ban mostly AI-generated projects; gitbuild.dev does not. The only AI rule we have runs the other way — your code is never used to train models.

Is gitbuild.dev a GitHub alternative?

Yes — gitbuild.dev is a GitHub alternative for developers who want the same Git workflow without US jurisdiction or AI training on their code. Repositories, issues, and pull requests work the way you expect, hosted entirely in the EU. See the full gitbuild.dev vs GitHub comparison.

How is this different from GitHub or GitLab?

gitbuild.dev is European Git hosting built on Forgejo, a fully open-source Git platform. Unlike GitHub (Microsoft) or GitLab Inc., your code is hosted in the EU under European data protection law, with no AI training, no US data transfers, and no proprietary lock-in. Same Git workflow, different jurisdiction.

Can I migrate my existing repositories?

Yes — it's the same Git protocol. Change your remote URL, push, and you're done. Issues, pull requests, and CI pipelines can be migrated using Forgejo's built-in migration tools or community-maintained scripts.

Is there a free plan?

Yes — the Free plan includes one private repository with 500 MB of storage, free forever. Paid plans start at €8/mo with unlimited private repos. No credit card required to sign up.

What happens if I want to leave?

You own your code. Export your repositories, migrate to another Forgejo instance, or switch to a different platform — there is no lock-in. We provide straightforward data export through the Forgejo interface.
