git works over ssh. If you have an account you can ssh into you have a git server. That's literally all the git@(whatever) is under the hood that you set your remotes to.

Everything is just dumping UI over a file system and executing command line stuff.

If you want that too take a look at forgejo or gitlab, both of which I use for self hosting. The setup is similar to setting up any other server that requires user accounts, a database, and exposed ports.
