We are proud to present the release of Gitea version 1.15.8.

We highly encourage users to update to this version for some important bug-fixes.

We have merged [16](https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pulls?q=is%3Apr+milestone%3A1.15.8+is%3Amerged) pull requests to release this version.

:exclamation: We remind users that a bug was discovered with `gitea dump` in 1.14.3–1.14.6 and 1.15.0. Database dumps from these versions cause
broken fields in the `repo_unit` and `login_source` tables causing the issue identified in [#16961](https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/16961). 
Users on 1.14.x must upgrade to 1.14.7 before running `gitea dump`. If this is not possible and you are affected [#17137](https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/17137)
provides a new `gitea doctor` command to fix the `repo_unit` issue:

```
gitea doctor --fix --run fix-broken-repo-units
```
