Odd, setting this up with gitea (which forgejo was forked from) was painless, maybe their guide will help. There is a few different options

So interesting, actually yesterday I was sporadically reading that page but not following it exactly. Now that you posted the link I really paid attention and followed it again, and I have the feeling I did exactly the same steps, but now it just worked!

Thanks so much, this is awesome, now I really don't need GitHub anymore.

Here is the script I used to migrate: https://git.jeena.net/jeena/github2forgejo
