Yes, the external OAuth clients are listed under https://www.netlifycms.org/docs/authentication-backends/#github-backend. Currently, there are clients in Node.JS, Python, and Go:

Once you set up the server, you can simply add a base_url setting point to your OAuth client under your backend in your CMS config:

backend:
  name: github
  repo: user/repo
  base_url: https://your.server.com # URL to OAuth client
