Anonymity - Gitea .onion setup (Code repositories) #22

New Issue

why this is important (explain what happened to tornadocash) >> a clear attack on free speech. Anonymity is REQUIRED even for free speech
what git is: decentralised protocol for project management, but the most popular place for git repositories is owned by microsoft, a centralised entity working for the US government. >> mention what happened to the tornadocash github repositories
what is gitea: essentially a github replacement, that way the repositories you have there can't be taken down without your own accord.
and if the server is accessible only via .onion, then authorities can't even tell where the server is, making your free speech on it unstoppable.

to be showcased:

how to setup a gitea instance, accessible only over .onion (no clearnet at all!)
how to create a repository, how to git pull it (via the .onion domain) and send commits to it (git commit and such) via Tor still. from a whonix VM. (need to mention how git can interact with the local socks5 proxy of Tor)
how to disable registrations, it must be manual (people contact you on simplex to ask you to create an account for them) >> as email registration is unacceptable

POTENTIALLY COMPLEX PART:

showcase how to update the gitea service while still going through Tor (docker-compose pull to make it simple)
showcase how you can MIRROR github repositories on your gitea, while also going through Tor (serverside socks5 proxying gitea config: https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/issues/22335 ?)

requires https://git.nowhere.moe/nihilist/blog-contributions/issues/13 to be finished optional: https://git.nowhere.moe/nihilist/blog-contributions/issues/66 to be finished in the case of an on-premise setup to be explained: - why this is important (explain what happened to tornadocash) >> a clear attack on free speech.
