Additional informations

User synchronization

In order to allow access to Forgejo admin section, YunoHost users are automaticaly synchronized with Forgejo's.
You can use «Forgejo (admin)» permission to manage which user is considered as forgejo admin.

The «forgejo (api)» permission must be set to «Visitors» group to allow user synchronization via an API call.

Known issue : when a user is added to a group (e.g. the one with «Forgejo (admin)» permission), the synchronization is not triggered by YunoHost. You have to update a user (without any modification) to trigger it. (https://github.com/YunoHost/issues/issues/2213)

Notes on SSH usage

If you want to use Forgejo with SSH and be able to pull/push with your SSH key, your SSH daemon must be properly configured to use private/public keys. Here is a sample configuration /etc/ssh/sshd_config that works with Forgejo:

PubkeyAuthentication yes
ChallengeResponseAuthentication no
PasswordAuthentication no

You must also add your public key to your Forgejo profile.

When using SSH on any port other than 22, you need to add these lines to your SSH configuration ~/.ssh/config:

Host domain.tld
    port 2222 # change this with the port you use

Private Mode

Actually it's possible to access to the Git repositories by the git command over HTTP also in private mode installation. It's important to know that in this mode the repository could be ALSO getted if you don't set the repository as private in the repos settings.

Remove

To remove the data directory in /home/yunohost.app/forgejo, use the --purge option: sudo yunohost remove forgejo --purge.

Uploaded files size

By default, NGINX is configured with a maximum value for uploading files at 200 MB. It's possible to change this value on /etc/nginx/conf.d/my.domain.tld.d/forgejo.conf.

client_max_body_size 200M;

Don't forget to restart Forgejo sudo systemctl restart forgejo.service.

These settings are restored to the default configuration when updating Forgejo. Remember to restore your configuration after all updates.

Git command access with HTTPS

If you want to use the Git command (like git clone, git pull, git push), you need to set this app as public.
