This is going to federate via ActivityPub. My understanding if you'll have a centralized repo under someone or some business. But you could have your own account and fork their repo to your federated server. You can work there, push changes and it goes up.
Being AP you can follow changes, get alerts on releases, etc.
"What about forge federation?
Federation is under active development, and is considered experimental. This is because many required features−notably moderation and access control−have not yet been developed.
The Forgejo project reserves the right to make breaking changes to its federation components with no prior warning. Such changes may be “backwards incompatible” and could result in the (sub-)domain used for your Forgejo instance to be “burned”. This means that the domain will no longer be usable for ActivityPub-based federation in the future, no matter whether you set up Forgejo from scratch or choose to use other software that uses ActivityPub.
For more information on implemented features and future federation-related plans, check out the federation roadmap.
If you are interested in working on federation-related code, consider joining our federation-focused Matrix room: #forgejo-federation:matrix.org (web link)"
