L&S Cloud services hosts a Forgejo git server to facilitate both instructional use (for tools like BinderHub, nbgitpuller in JupyterHub, etc..), and for Research (both for hosting public datasets like Public Datasets and private repositories for more sensitive information). To use this service, you'll need to log in with your UCSB NetID and Password.
Tied to this git server is an OpenGist server, which also acts as a pastebin service. Typically it's for sharing a single text based file (or output) with other users. There are options to have both public and private gists available. Use of this service also requires a valid UCSB NetID and Password.
