Gitea Retirement Checklist (T12 prep)

Date: 2026-07-09
Workplan: RAIL-HO-WP-0005-T12
Status: prep only — no Gitea retirement executed

Prerequisites (not yet met)

Gate Status ETA
T04/T09 7-day backup gate 4/7 (make forgejo-backup-status) 2026-07-12 if daily 02:15 UTC cron keeps succeeding
state-hub stabilization window Ends 2026-07-09 Met
Operator approval (needs_human) Pending Required before any Helm teardown

Monitor:

cd ~/railiance-platform && make forgejo-backup-status
tail -5 ~/.cache/railiance/backups/forgejo/cron.log

Dependency scan (2026-07-09)

Clear — no active git remotes on Gitea

Check Result
State Hub remote_url 82 Forgejo, 0 Gitea, 0 without remote
Workstation origin using gitea-remote 0 (legacy gitea remotes retained for rollback only)
Forgejo Actions workflows referencing gitea-remote 0

Gitea still running (intentional fallback)

Host Release Namespace Notes
coulombcore (~/.kube/config) gitea Helm 12.5.0 default Archived read-only repos; package push disabled
railiance01 (config-hosteurope) forgejo Helm 12.5.0 forgejo Production canonical

Rollback runbook: docs/forgejo-cutover-rollback.md (90-day no-delete contract).

Stale references — docs/config, not live git remotes

These do not block Forgejo operation but should be cleaned before or during Gitea retirement:

Area Examples Owner repo
OCI image repos in Helm values gitea.coulomb.social/coulomb/inter-hub, reuse-surface, vergabe-teilnahme railiance-apps
npm registry URLs gitea.coulomb.social/api/packages/coulomb/npm/ secrets-engine, activity-core
Ops inventory endpoint activity-core/k8s/railiance/20-runtime.yaml activity-core
Deploy runbook docs/deploy-stack.md (this repo) railiance-infra — updated 2026-07-09

State Hub alias: railiance-bootstrap

Field railiance-bootstrap railiance-cluster
local_path /home/worsch/railiance-bootstrap /home/worsch/railiance-cluster
remote_url forgejo-remote:coulomb/railiance-bootstrap.git forgejo-remote:coulomb/railiance-cluster.git
git_fingerprint 6b930728… (same) 6b930728… (same)

Working assumption confirmed: stale logical alias. T12 action: operator decides whether to archive the hub entry or repoint local_path to railiance-cluster after confirming no checkout depends on /home/worsch/railiance-bootstrap.

Operator decision

Choose one before executing T12:

  • Leave coulombcore gitea Helm release running.
  • Document in runbooks: read-only archive, no new pushes.
  • Revisit retirement after 90-day rollback window.
  • T12 done when: Forgejo is sole active forge; Gitea retained intentionally.

Option B — Retire Gitea Helm release

Only after prerequisites + explicit approval:

  1. Re-run dependency scan (State Hub remotes, ArgoCD repoURL, CI workflows).
  2. Take final Gitea backup (forgejo dump equivalent via Gitea admin or volume snapshot).
  3. Export archived repo list for audit.
  4. Scale down or uninstall gitea Helm on coulombcore.
  5. Update docs/forgejo-cutover-rollback.md — rollback becomes volume-restore only.
  6. Prune DNS/ingress if no longer needed.

T12 task checklist

  • T04/T09 7-day gate 7/7
  • Operator chooses Option A or B
  • Final Gitea backup captured and catalogued
  • No active remotes/webhooks/dashboards on Gitea (re-verify)
  • Runbooks point to Forgejo (deploy-stack.md, layer repo docs)
  • railiance-bootstrap hub alias resolved
  • Stale OCI/npm references migrated to forgejo.coulomb.social (follow-up workplans in railiance-apps, activity-core)
  • If Option B: Gitea Helm retired; evidence logged to State Hub
