How to create a static site using Codeberg

Note

First, make sure you have a git repo: How to create a git repo on Codeberg

Create the pages branch

Add a pages branch to the git repo:

git branch pages

Warning

Codeberg recommends this instead:

git switch --orphan pages
git rm --cached -r .

Then clone this branch into a new directory, next to the current repo:

cd ..
git clone -b pages git@codeberg.org:r4re/docs.git docs_pages

Now, check a URL like : https://r4re.codeberg.page/docs where r4re is your codeberg username and docs is the repo.

Example session:

Request for a custom domain name

Create a file called .domains in the pages branch root, with at least a line pointing to the desired domain name.

Make a request to add your codeberg pages to the domain name: send an email to admin (r4.re) with the complete URL to use, something like:

staticrepo.USERNAME.codeberg.page

We will add a CNAME pointing to this URL, as soon as possible.
