If you want to try a bunch in a hurry see:
* https://www.turnkeylinux.org/git
* https://bitnami.com/stacks?q=git

Unlike Fred I am NOT a fan of Atlassian or any of their tools.  First, they are all Java, so you get less than half the performance for more than twice the resources, AND all the pain and insecurity of dealing with Java.  Second, they are all totally different tools they half-assedly munged together (Jira, Confluence, BB, etc.), so the UX is the-same-yet-different.  That doesn't matter if you only use 1 tool, but...

I'd vote Gitlab for this use-case, via one of the "packages" above to simplify install and upkeep.

Good luck,
JP
