Support for Additional Git Servers
The current implementation of CSGHub Server only supports Gitea as the Git server. As mentioned in the roadmap, it would be beneficial to support more mainstream Git repositories in the future. I propose adding support for GitLab and GitHub as additional Git servers.
Motivation
This feature would allow users to integrate CSGHub Server with their existing Git workflows, making it more versatile and appealing to a wider range of users.
Expected Behavior
The CSGHub Server should be able to connect to and manage repositories on GitLab and GitHub, in addition to Gitea.
Acceptance Criteria
- The CSGHub Server can successfully connect to GitLab and GitHub repositories.
- The CSGHub Server can manage repositories on GitLab and GitHub, including creating, updating, and deleting repositories.
- The CSGHub Server can handle authentication and authorization for GitLab and GitHub repositories.
