Gitea Gitea Git Server (Helm Chart / Kubernetes) — Default Password
Default username and password for the Gitea Gitea Git Server (Helm Chart / Kubernetes): gitea_admin / r8sA8CPHD9!bt6d. Learn how to log in and how to change the default credentials.
The official Gitea Helm chart ships with hardcoded default admin credentials in values.yaml. The username 'admin' is disallowed by Gitea, so the chart uses 'gitea_admin'. With default keepUpdated=true the password resets to this value on every pod restart unless overridden. Override in production via a Kubernetes Secret.
| Username | Password | Access | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
gitea_admin | r8sA8CPHD9!bt6d | Web UI | Default Helm chart values.yaml credential. Resets on restart if not overridden. |
