ProGit: Standalone Self-Hosted Git Platform

We are not a SaaS rental. We deliver a permanent, standalone Git collaboration platform on your private infrastructure with turnkey installation, training, and IT handover.

₹5 Lakhs One-Time
Turnkey on-premise installation, comprehensive developer & admin training, and formal IT handover.
Zero SaaS Seat Tax
Unlimited developers, repositories, and project boards. Your cost does not increase as your team grows.
Minimal Update Cost
Security patches, vulnerability hotfixes, and platform enhancements delivered at transparent, minimal cost.
100% Code Privacy
Client intellectual property stays on your private servers. Fully offline, air-gap ready, zero telemetry.
Own Your Git Infrastructure — Stop Renting from Proprietary SaaS
Software consultancies and midsize IT teams shouldn't bleed recurring margins to cloud vendors. ProGit delivers a single-binary, pure-Go Git platform installed directly on your internal hardware or private cloud, with complete operational control handed over to your IT team.
The SME Pain
Supported by PDIH • Created by ProGit Team and Sanjeev

Why Small & Midsize Teams Overpay

SaaS vendors extract heavy margins from growing software teams, while traditional self-hosted solutions demand excessive DevOps maintenance.

1. The Per-Seat Penalty on Agency Margins
GitHub Team costs $4/seat/mo, Enterprise costs $21/seat/mo, and GitLab ranges from $29 to $99/seat/mo. For a 40-engineer software agency, you spend $10,000 to $47,000 every year on hosting git repositories. That comes directly off your bottom line.
-$25K/yr Average agency profit lost to per-seat SaaS bills
2. GitLab Self-Hosted Is an Ops Nightmare
GitLab Omnibus requires 8 to 16 GB of RAM just to idle. It launches 20+ microservices (Puma, Sidekiq, Redis, Gitaly, PostgreSQL) that break during version upgrades and demand dedicated DevOps engineers that small teams don't have.
16 GB Minimum server RAM needed for GitLab self-managed
3. Client NDAs & Third-Party Cloud Risks
Enterprise clients frequently demand that their proprietary source code never leaves private customer-controlled or agency-controlled networks. Putting NDA-protected client code on public cloud SaaS platforms creates legal exposure.
0% Tolerance for client IP leaks or cloud outages
4. Gitea & Legacy Clones Lack Modern Polish
Traditional open-source alternatives often rely on server-rendered HTML templates that feel dated. Developers miss modern SPA responsiveness, intuitive split-diff reviews, clickable permalinks, and GitHub-style file explorer trees.
React 19 ProGit solves this with modern GitHub-grade SPA
Architecture & Simplicity
Supported by PDIH • Created by ProGit Team and Sanjeev

Built for Speed & Operational Simplicity

A zero-maintenance single Go binary that runs circles around bloated enterprise stacks.

Single Static Binary (~35 MB)
No external runtimes, no Node.js or Python daemons. The entire React 19 UI is compiled directly into the binary with embed.FS.
Zero-CGO SQLite WAL Mode
High-concurrency SQLite with Write-Ahead Logging. Handles thousands of concurrent reads and writes with zero database server setup.
Embedded SSH on Port 2222
Built-in pure-Go SSH server. No need to touch your host's OpenSSH or manage Linux system user accounts. Keys are scoped and verified automatically.
Native HTTPS & Auto-Redirect
Built-in HTTPS listener on port 3443 with self-signed certificate generation and automatic HTTP port 3000 → 3443 redirection.
Sub-Second Startup
Spins up in less than 2 seconds. Ready for instant local developer workstations, branch review pods, and continuous integration runners.
Single Volume Backup
Backing up ProGit is as simple as copying the /data directory or taking a snapshot of SQLite and repository bare trees.
Developer UX
Supported by PDIH • Created by ProGit Team and Sanjeev

The Exact GitHub UX Developers Love

Zero onboarding friction. Your engineers feel right at home from their very first push.

GitHub-Style File Explorer
Collapsible file hierarchy tree on the left side of both file viewer and online file editor. Fast navigation, instant branch switcher, and automatic dark/light theme matching.
Unified & Split Diff PR Reviews
Review code changes side-by-side or unified with syntax highlighting across 20+ languages. Sticky changed files sidebar lets you jump directly to modified files.
Line Anchors (#L42) & Git Blame
Click any line number to highlight and copy a shareable permalink. Inspect line-by-line author history, commit hashes, and timestamps in the interactive Blame tab.
Smart Git Push Hooks & Terminal Welcome
Pushing code over SSH greets developers in the terminal: Hi <user>! You've successfully authenticated and prints 1-click Pull Request creation URLs.

HMAC-SHA256 Webhooks Engine
Dispatches authenticated payloads on push, pull_request, issues, and release events. Compatible with Jenkins, Drone CI, Woodpecker, GitHub Actions runners, and Slack/Discord bots.
Full REST API (v1)
Comprehensive REST API for provisioning users, creating repositories, managing personal access tokens, creating webhooks, committing files online, and generating audit reports.
Branch Protection Rules
Protect your main or release branches against accidental deletion or force pushes. Enforce pull request reviews before merging client production code.
Binary Releases & Assets
Tag releases and upload client deliverables, compiled executables, or documentation ZIP packages with Git tag association and download counters.
Data Sovereignty
Supported by PDIH • Created by ProGit Team and Sanjeev

100% Data Sovereignty & Privacy

Keep your agency's intellectual property and confidential client code strictly under your control.

Zero Phone-Home Telemetry
ProGit contains zero tracking beacons, external analytics, or remote license check calls. It runs completely air-gapped without internet access.
Rootless Non-Root Execution
Runs by default under dedicated unprivileged system user (UID 1000). Built-in support for SELinux container volume labels (:Z).
Zero CGO Memory Safety
Pure Go codebase eliminates legacy C pointer errors, memory leaks, and buffer overflow vulnerabilities present in C-based Git wrappers.
Client Pitch Advantage for Consultancies

When pitching enterprise clients, you can proudly declare: "We host and build your custom software exclusively on our private, air-gapped Git infrastructure with zero third-party cloud data exposure." This is a major differentiator in competitive agency bids.
