history
Project history and usage
Codeberg CLI was an independent command-line client for Codeberg and Forgejo-style forges, published as the `berg` command. Its own repository is now archived and directs users toward the better-maintained Forgejo CLI.
Project history
The Codeberg repository was created on 2023-01-10. Codeberg's API describes it as a CLI tool for Forgejo similar to `gh`, `glab`, and `tea`, and the first public release, v0.1.0, was published on 2023-01-29.
The README now begins with an archived notice saying the project was discontinued because of lack of maintainer time, and recommends `forgejo-contrib/forgejo-cli` as a similar, more official tool.
Adoption history
The input package facts list distribution through Homebrew, Alpine APK, and Nix, showing that the tool escaped its upstream forge and reached common Unix package channels. Its official repository also advertised a crates.io package badge, consistent with Rust CLI distribution.
Release metadata shows a short but multi-year maintenance arc from 2023 releases through v0.5.1 in 2025, after which the project was archived.
How it is used
The intended use was to provide a forge CLI for Codeberg or Forgejo users, analogous to GitHub's `gh`, GitLab's `glab`, and Gitea's `tea`. The Homebrew formula exposes the `berg` executable.
Why package nerds care
The package is interesting mostly as a transition artifact in the Forgejo/Codeberg tooling ecosystem: a third-party Rust CLI that filled a gap before users were steered toward a more official Forgejo CLI. For package maintainers, its archived status matters more than feature depth because downstream packages may need replacement or removal planning.
