Proposal: Decentralization of gitea repositories?

[Kreyren]

Inspired by zeronet's git service proposing to implement decentralization of repositories so that the instance doesn't have to host everything by themselves.

[techknowlogick]

For hosting repos not on the users current instance we have issues open about federation this would be our desired approach.

just a side note ... if you look on a repo at "Git Center" it download the whole thing ...

@Kreyren
so it's not a decentralized file storing in that sence ... and there is a consensus to adopt ForgeFed (#14186, ...) at some point ...

[Kreyren]

Why not implementing or at least tracking this interpretation as well? Could be configurable thing
