Hello,

as software is continuously being developed,
it seems logical that there are packages to use in debian for this
purpose; ie project management (eg tickets, wiki, ..) and version
control (eg git). Ideally, these packages should be dist-upgradable, as
Debian is known for it's stability (eg Debian 11 > Debian 12)

but it seems this is not so straightforward? (unless i miss something
clear in the landscape):
* Redmine: disappeared in Debian 11, to return in 12, so difficult to
upgrade. Has also it's own issues.
* Gitlab: there is a fast-track, which seems maintenance intensive, and
doesn't look stable to be used for several years? (compared to apache2,
php, postgresql, ..)
* Gitea or Forgejo: incomplete? 
* trac: disappeared in Debian 10, 11, to return in backports 11
* (gitweb, too limited)
* others? 

Further, the maintenance and development of Debian uses it's own
system, and or version of gitlab

If you have other suggestions, let me know. Just looking for a stable,
trustworthy solution with at least git, issues/tickets, wiki and user
management.

(no to mention CI/CD, more as a nice to have in this context)
