Duplicate headers in a single Markdown document are problemlematic
because the auto-generated links won't be stable. Enable this rule with
no exceptions which is also the default of `markdownlint`. For example:
```md
# A
## Example
# B
## Example
```
Docasaurus will generated `example` and `example-1` links for this. If
the first heading is altered, the link `example` will unexpectedly move
to the second example heading.

Part of https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/issues/27097:
- `gitea` theme is renamed to `gitea-light`
- `arc-green` theme is renamed to `gitea-dark`
- `auto` theme is renamed to `gitea-auto`
I put both themes in separate CSS files, removing all colors from the
base CSS. Existing users will be migrated to the new theme names. The
dark theme recolor will follow in a separate PR.
## ⚠️ BREAKING ⚠️
1. If there are existing custom themes with the names `gitea-light` or
`gitea-dark`, rename them before this upgrade and update the `theme`
column in the `user` table for each affected user.
2. The theme in `<html>` has moved from `class="theme-name"` to
`data-theme="name"`, existing customizations that depend on should be
updated.

With this PR we added the possibility to configure the Actions timeouts
values for killing tasks/jobs.
Particularly this enhancement is closely related to the `act_runner`
configuration reported below:
```
# The timeout for a job to be finished.
# Please note that the Gitea instance also has a timeout (3h by default) for the job.
# So the job could be stopped by the Gitea instance if it's timeout is shorter than this.
timeout: 3h
```
---
Setting the corresponding key in the INI configuration file, it is
possible to let jobs run for more than 3 hours.

Previously, the production build never output sourcemaps. Now we emit
one file for `index.js` because it is the most likely one where we need
to be able to better debug reported issues like
https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/issues/27213. This will currently
increase the binary size of gitea by around 700kB which is what the
gzipped source map file has.
Also, I fixed the CSS sourcemap generation which was broken since the
introduction of lightningcss.
WIP because:
- [x] Some calls set a `content-type` but send no body, can likely
remove the header
- [x] Need to check whether `charset=utf-8` has any significance on the
webauthn calls, I assume not as it is the default for json content.
- [x] Maybe `no-restricted-globals` is better for eslint, but will
require a lot of duplication in the yaml or moving eslint config to a
`.js` extension.
- [x] Maybe export `request` as `fetch`, shadowing the global.
Closes#26329
This PR adds the ability to ignore revisions specified in the
`.git-blame-ignore-revs` file in the root of the repository.
The banner is displayed in this case. I intentionally did not add a UI

`?bypass-blame-ignore=true` to the url manually.

Hello,
The current package guide for cargo gives you only the git index, with
the HTTP Index stabilized being used as default for crates.io and being
better for most use-cases.
However, it's not documented that gitea supports the sparse spec, and it
does not require the _crates-index git repo for the sparse api.
I personally think we should push users to use the sparse instead of the
git repository. (Even let users disable crates-index repos if they only
want to use sparse)
If the AppURL(ROOT_URL) is an HTTPS URL, then the COOKIE_SECURE's
default value should be true.
And, if a user visits an "http" site with "https" AppURL, they won't be
able to login, and they should have been warned. The only problem is
that the "language" can't be set either in such case, while I think it
is not a serious problem, and it could be fixed easily if needed.
1. Introduce lightweight `fetch` wrapper functions that automatically
sets csfr token, content-type and use it in `RepoActionView.vue`.
2. Fix a specific issue on `RepoActionView.vue` where a fetch network
error is shortly visible during page reload sometimes. It can be
reproduced by F5-in in quick succession on the actions view page and was
also producing a red error box on the page.
Once approved, we can replace all current `fetch` uses in UI with this
in another PR.

Currently, Artifact does not have an expiration and automatic cleanup

key points:
- [x] add global artifact retention days option in config file. Default
value is 90 days.
- [x] add cron task to clean up expired artifacts. It should run once a
day.
- [x] support custom retention period from `retention-days: 5` in
`upload-artifact@v3`.
- [x] artifacts link in actions view should be non-clickable text when
expired.

This PR adds our matrix space to the support options and alphabetizes

This PR is an extended implementation of #25189 and builds upon the
proposal by @hickford in #25653, utilizing some ideas proposed
internally by @wxiaoguang.
Mainly, this PR consists of a mechanism to pre-register OAuth2
applications on startup, which can be enabled or disabled by modifying
the `[oauth2].DEFAULT_APPLICATIONS` parameter in app.ini. The OAuth2
applications registered this way are being marked as "locked" and
neither be deleted nor edited over UI to prevent confusing/unexpected
behavior. Instead, they're being removed if no longer enabled in config.
The implemented mechanism can also be used to pre-register other OAuth2
applications in the future, if wanted.

And close#25965 by the way (it needs a separate fix for 1.20)
Major changes:

still works as a hidden sub-command (to avoid breaking)
2. Do not write "doctor.log" by default, it's not useful in most cases
and causes bugs like 25965
3. Improve documents
4. Fix the "help" commands. Before, the "./gitea doctor" can't show the
sub-command help correctly (regression of the last cli/v2 refactoring)
After this PR:
```
./gitea help # show all sub-commands for the app

There were some concerns about the "option order in hook scripts"
(https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/10912#issuecomment-1137543314),
it's not a problem now. Because the hook script uses `/gitea hook
--config=/app.ini pre-receive` format. The "config" is a global option,
it can appear anywhere.

## ⚠️ BREAKING ⚠️
This PR does it best to avoid breaking anything. The major changes are:
* `gitea` itself won't accept web's options: `--install-port` / `--pid`
/ `--port` / `--quiet` / `--verbose` .... They are `web` sub-command's
options.
* Use `./gitea web --pid ....` instead
* `./gitea` can still run the `web` sub-command as shorthand, with
default options
* The sub-command's options must follow the sub-command
* Before: `./gitea --sub-opt subcmd` might equal to `./gitea subcmd
--sub-opt` (well, might not ...)
* After: only `./gitea subcmd --sub-opt` could be used
* The global options like `--config` are not affected

Move `public/*` to `public/assets/*`
Some old PRs (like #15219) introduced inconsistent directory system.
For example: why the local directory "public" is accessed by
`http://site/assets`? How to serve the ".well-known" files properly in
the public directory?
For convention rules, the "public" directory is widely used for the
website's root directory. It shouldn't be an exception for Gitea.
So, this PR makes the things consistent:
* `http://site/assets/foo` means `{CustomPath}/public/assets/foo`.
* `{CustomPath}/public/.well-known` and `{CustomPath}/public/robots.txt`
can be used in the future.
This PR is also a prerequisite for a clear solution for:
* #21942
* #25892
* discourse.gitea.io: [.well-known path serving custom files behind
proxy?](https://discourse.gitea.io/t/well-known-path-serving-custom-files-behind-proxy/5445/1)

The problem was: when users set "GITEA__XXX__YYY" , the "install page"
doesn't respect it.
So, to make the result consistent and avoid surprising end users, now
the "install page" also writes the environment variables to the config
file.
And, to make things clear, there are enough messages on the UI to tell
users what will happen.
There are some necessary/related changes to `environment-to-ini.go`:
* The "--clear" flag is removed and it was incorrectly written there.
The "clear" operation should be done if INSTALL_LOCK=true
* The "--prefix" flag is removed because it's never used, never
documented and it only causes inconsistent behavior.

## ⚠️ BREAKING ⚠️
Before this, `DEFAULT_ACTIONS_URL` cound be set to any custom URLs like
`https://gitea.com` or `http://your-git-server,https://gitea.com`, and
the default value was `https://gitea.com`.
But now, `DEFAULT_ACTIONS_URL` supports only
`github`(`https://github.com`) or `self`(the root url of current Gitea
instance), and the default value is `github`.
If it has configured with a URL, an error log will be displayed and it
will fallback to `github`.
Actually, what we really want to do is always make it
`https://github.com`, however, this may not be acceptable for some
instances of internal use, so there's extra support for `self`, but no
more, even `https://gitea.com`.
Please note that `uses: https://xxx/yyy/zzz` always works and it does
exactly what it is supposed to do.
Although it's breaking, I belive it should be backported to `v1.20` due
to some security issues.

Refactor `modules/indexer` to make it more maintainable. And it can be

| - | - | - |
| db | Just a wrapper for database queries, doesn't need version | - |
| bleve | The version of index is **2** | The version of index is **6**
|
| elasticsearch | The old index has no version, will be treated as
version **0** in this PR | The version of index is **1** |
| meilisearch | The old index has no version, will be treated as version
**0** in this PR | - |
## Changes
### Split
Splited it into mutiple packages
```text
indexer
├── internal
│ ├── bleve
│ ├── db
│ ├── elasticsearch
│ └── meilisearch
├── code
│ ├── bleve
│ ├── elasticsearch
│ └── internal
└── issues
├── bleve
├── db
├── elasticsearch
├── internal
└── meilisearch
```
- `indexer/interanal`: Internal shared package for indexer.
- `indexer/interanal/[engine]`: Internal shared package for each engine
(bleve/db/elasticsearch/meilisearch).
- `indexer/code`: Implementations for code indexer.
- `indexer/code/internal`: Internal shared package for code indexer.
- `indexer/code/[engine]`: Implementation via each engine for code
indexer.
- `indexer/issues`: Implementations for issues indexer.
### Deduplication
- Combine `Init/Ping/Close` for code indexer and issues indexer.
- ~Combine `issues.indexerHolder` and `code.wrappedIndexer` to
`internal.IndexHolder`.~ Remove it, use dummy indexer instead when the
indexer is not ready.
- Duplicate two copies of creating ES clients.
- Duplicate two copies of `indexerID()`.
### Enhancement
- [x] Support index version for elasticsearch issues indexer, the old
index without version will be treated as version 0.
- [x] Fix spell of `elastic_search/ElasticSearch`, it should be
`Elasticsearch`.
- [x] Improve versioning of ES index. We don't need `Aliases`:
- Gitea does't need aliases for "Zero Downtime" because it never delete
old indexes.
- The old code of issues indexer uses the orignal name to create issue
index, so it's tricky to convert it to an alias.
- [x] Support index version for meilisearch issues indexer, the old
index without version will be treated as version 0.
- [x] Do "ping" only when `Ping` has been called, don't ping
periodically and cache the status.
- [x] Support the context parameter whenever possible.
- [x] Fix outdated example config.
- [x] Give up the requeue logic of issues indexer: When indexing fails,
call Ping to check if it was caused by the engine being unavailable, and
only requeue the task if the engine is unavailable.
- It is fragile and tricky, could cause data losing (It did happen when
I was doing some tests for this PR). And it works for ES only.
- Just always requeue the failed task, if it caused by bad data, it's a
bug of Gitea which should be fixed.

## ⚠️ BREAKING
The key `[database].CHARSET` was removed completely as every newer

There is a (deliberately) undocumented new fallback option if anyone
still needs to use it, but we don't recommend using it as it simply
causes problems.
### Summary
Extend the template variable substitution to replace file paths. This
can be helpful for setting up log files & directories that should match
the repository name.
### PR Changes
- Move files matching glob pattern when setting up repos from template
- For security, added ~escaping~ sanitization for cross-platform support
and to prevent directory traversal (thanks @silverwind for the
reference)
- Added unit testing for escaping function
- Fixed the integration tests for repo template generation by passing
the repo_template_id
- Updated the integration testfiles to add some variable substitution &
assert the outputs
I had to fix the existing repo template integration test and extend it
to add a check for variable substitutions.
Example:
In this pull request, the following changes are addressed:
- State user should create `config.yaml` before start container to avoid
errors.
- Provided instructions to deploy runners using docker compose.
So I found this [linter](https://github.com/Riverside-Healthcare/djlint)
which features a mode for go templates, so I gave it a try and it did
find a number of valid issue, like unbalanced tags etc. It also has a
number of bugs, I had to disable/workaround many issues.
Given that this linter is written in python, this does add a dependency
on `python` >= 3.8 and `poetry` to the development environment to be
able to run this linter locally.
- `e.g.` prefixes on placeholders are removed because the linter had a
false-positive on `placeholder="e.g. cn=Search"` for the `attr=value`
syntax and it's not ideal anyways to write `e.g.` into a placeholder
because a placeholder is meant to hold a sample value.
- In `templates/repo/settings/options.tmpl` I simplified the logic to
not conditionally create opening tags without closing tags because this
stuff confuses the linter (and possibly the reader as well).
Follow up #22405Fix#20703
This PR rewrites storage configuration read sequences with some breaks
and tests. It becomes more strict than before and also fixed some
inherit problems.
- Move storage's MinioConfig struct into setting, so after the
configuration loading, the values will be stored into the struct but not
still on some section.
- All storages configurations should be stored on one section,
configuration items cannot be overrided by multiple sections. The
prioioty of configuration is `[attachment]` > `[storage.attachments]` |
`[storage.customized]` > `[storage]` > `default`
- For extra override configuration items, currently are `SERVE_DIRECT`,
`MINIO_BASE_PATH`, `MINIO_BUCKET`, which could be configured in another
section. The prioioty of the override configuration is `[attachment]` >
`[storage.attachments]` > `default`.
- Add more tests for storages configurations.
- Update the storage documentations.

- Enable all source maps in dev build
- Disable all source maps in prod build
- Provide `ENABLE_SOURCEMAP` env var to override it.
I think the strange error seen in
https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/issues/24784 is sourcemap related, so
if we enable/disable them all, it might go away. But it's most
definitely a Safari bug.
With all sourcemaps disabled, binary size goes down by around 1-2 MB,
with all enabled it goes up by around 12MB. If +12MB is acceptable, we
could also always enable them by default as fully source maps do have
some debugging benefits.
If a user starts a runner using a Docker image without making additional
configurations, the [cache action](https://github.com/actions/cache)
will not work properly.
Therefore, add a section in the documentation that explains how to
configure the cache correctly.
## Changes
- Adds the following high level access scopes, each with `read` and
`write` levels:
- `activitypub`
- `admin` (hidden if user is not a site admin)
- `misc`
- `notification`
- `organization`
- `package`
- `issue`
- `repository`
- `user`
- Adds new middleware function `tokenRequiresScopes()` in addition to
`reqToken()`
- `tokenRequiresScopes()` is used for each high-level api section
- _if_ a scoped token is present, checks that the required scope is
included based on the section and HTTP method
- `reqToken()` is used for individual routes
- checks that required authentication is present (but does not check
scope levels as this will already have been handled by
`tokenRequiresScopes()`
- Adds migration to convert old scoped access tokens to the new set of
scopes
- Updates the user interface for scope selection

## tokenRequiresScopes Design Decision
- `tokenRequiresScopes()` was added to more reliably cover api routes.
For an incoming request, this function uses the given scope category
(say `AccessTokenScopeCategoryOrganization`) and the HTTP method (say
`DELETE`) and verifies that any scoped tokens in use include
`delete:organization`.
- `reqToken()` is used to enforce auth for individual routes that
require it. If a scoped token is not present for a request,
`tokenRequiresScopes()` will not return an error
## TODO
- [x] Alphabetize scope categories
- [x] Change 'public repos only' to a radio button (private vs public).
Also expand this to organizations
- [X] Disable token creation if no scopes selected. Alternatively, show
warning
- [x] `reqToken()` is missing from many `POST/DELETE` routes in the api.
`tokenRequiresScopes()` only checks that a given token has the correct
scope, `reqToken()` must be used to check that a token (or some other
auth) is present.
- _This should be addressed in this PR_
- [x] The migration should be reviewed very carefully in order to
minimize access changes to existing user tokens.
- _This should be addressed in this PR_
- [x] Link to api to swagger documentation, clarify what
read/write/delete levels correspond to
- [x] Review cases where more than one scope is needed as this directly
deviates from the api definition.
- _This should be addressed in this PR_
- For example:
```go
m.Group("/users/{username}/orgs", func() {
m.Get("", reqToken(), org.ListUserOrgs)
m.Get("/{org}/permissions", reqToken(), org.GetUserOrgsPermissions)
}, tokenRequiresScopes(auth_model.AccessTokenScopeCategoryUser,
auth_model.AccessTokenScopeCategoryOrganization),
context_service.UserAssignmentAPI())
```
## Future improvements
- [ ] Add required scopes to swagger documentation
- [ ] Redesign `reqToken()` to be opt-out rather than opt-in
- [ ] Subdivide scopes like `repository`
- [ ] Once a token is created, if it has no scopes, we should display
text instead of an empty bullet point
- [ ] If the 'public repos only' option is selected, should read
categories be selected by default

authorization without the requirement to provide a client secret for the
OAuth app.
It is implemented in Gitea since #5378 (v1.8.0), however without being
able to omit client secret.
Since #21316 Gitea supports setting client type at OAuth app
registration.
As public clients are already forced to use PKCE since #21316, in this
PR the client secret check is being skipped if a public client is
detected. As Gitea seems to implement PKCE authorization correctly
according to the spec, this would allow for PKCE flow without providing
a client secret.
Also add some docs for it, please check language as I'm not a native
English speaker.
