There does not seem to be a good solution outside of what I have. The "newer" version (with a more modern CGI-based technology stack!) is much more complex to set up. Perhaps the smartest thing for me to do would be to install the cgit guix service https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Version-Control-Services.html. Best regards, divoplade
