Prepend refs/heads/ to issue template refs (#20461)
Fix #20456

At some point during the 1.17 cycle abbreviated refishs to issue
branches started breaking. This is likely due serious inconsistencies in
our management of refs throughout Gitea - which is a bug needing to be
addressed in a different PR. (Likely more than one)

We should try to use non-abbreviated `fullref`s as much as possible.
That is where a user has inputted a abbreviated `refish` we should add
`refs/heads/` if it is `branch` etc. I know people keep writing and
merging PRs that remove prefixes from stored content but it is just
wrong and it keeps causing problems like this. We should only remove the
prefix at the time of
presentation as the prefix is the only way of knowing umambiguously and
permanently if the `ref` is referring to a `branch`, `tag` or `commit` /
`SHA`. We need to make it so that every ref has the appropriate prefix,
and probably also need to come up with some definitely unambiguous way
of storing `SHA`s if they're used in a `ref` or `refish` field. We must
not store a potentially
ambiguous `refish` as a `ref`. (Especially when referring a `tag` -
there is no reason why users cannot create a `branch` with the same
short name as a `tag` and vice versa and any attempt to prevent this
will fail. You can even create a `branch` and a
`tag` that matches the `SHA` pattern.)

To that end in order to fix this bug, when parsing issue templates check
the provided `Ref` (here a `refish` because almost all users do not know
or understand the subtly), if it does not start with `refs/` add the
`BranchPrefix` to it. This allows people to make their templates refer
to a `tag` but not to a `SHA` directly. (I don't think that is
particularly unreasonable but if people disagree I can make the `refish`
be checked to see if it matches the `SHA` pattern.)

Next we need to handle the issue links that are already written. The
links here are created with `git.RefURL`

Here we see there is a bug introduced in #17551 whereby the provided
`ref` argument can be double-escaped so we remove the incorrect external
escape. (The escape added in #17551 is in the right place -
unfortunately I missed that the calling function was doing the wrong
thing.)

Then within `RefURL()` we check if an unprefixed `ref` (therefore
potentially a `refish`) matches the `SHA` pattern before assuming that
is actually a `commit` - otherwise is assumed to be a `branch`. This
will handle most of the problem cases excepting the very unusual cases
where someone has deliberately written a `branch` to look like a `SHA1`.

But please if something is called a `ref` or interpreted as a `ref` make
it a full-ref before storing or using it. By all means if something is a
`branch` assume the prefix is removed but always add it back in if you
are using it as a `ref`. Stop storing abbreviated `branch` names and
`tag` names - which are `refish` as a `ref`. It will keep on causing
problems like this.

Gitea

Gitea - Git with a cup of tea

Contribute with Gitpod

Purpose

The goal of this project is to make the easiest, fastest, and most painless way of setting up a self-hosted Git service.

As Gitea is written in Go, it works across all the platforms and architectures that are supported by Go, including Linux, macOS, and Windows on x86, amd64, ARM and PowerPC architectures. You can try it out using the online demo. This project has been forked from Gogs since November of 2016, but a lot has changed.

Building

From the root of the source tree, run:

TAGS="bindata" make build

or if SQLite support is required:

TAGS="bindata sqlite sqlite_unlock_notify" make build

The build target is split into two sub-targets:

  • make backend which requires Go Stable, required version is defined in go.mod.
  • make frontend which requires Node.js LTS or greater and Internet connectivity to download npm dependencies.

When building from the official source tarballs which include pre-built frontend files, the frontend target will not be triggered, making it possible to build without Node.js and Internet connectivity.

Parallelism (make -j <num>) is not supported.

More info: https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/install-from-source/

Using

./gitea web

NOTE: If you're interested in using our APIs, we have experimental support with documentation.

Contributing

Expected workflow is: Fork -> Patch -> Push -> Pull Request

NOTES:

  1. YOU MUST READ THE CONTRIBUTORS GUIDE BEFORE STARTING TO WORK ON A PULL REQUEST.
  2. If you have found a vulnerability in the project, please write privately to security@gitea.io. Thanks!

Translating

Translations are done through Crowdin. If you want to translate to a new language ask one of the managers in the Crowdin project to add a new language there.

You can also just create an issue for adding a language or ask on discord on the #translation channel. If you need context or find some translation issues, you can leave a comment on the string or ask on Discord. For general translation questions there is a section in the docs. Currently a bit empty but we hope to fill it as questions pop up.

We maintain a list of Gitea-related projects at gitea/awesome-gitea.

The Hugo-based documentation theme is hosted at gitea/theme.

The official Gitea CLI is developed at gitea/tea.
