# The problem
There were many "path tricks":
* By default, Gitea uses its program directory as its work path
* Gitea tries to use the "work path" to guess its "custom path" and
"custom conf (app.ini)"
* Users might want to use other directories as work path
* The non-default work path should be passed to Gitea by GITEA_WORK_DIR
or "--work-path"
* But some Gitea processes are started without these values
* The "serv" process started by OpenSSH server
* The CLI sub-commands started by site admin
* The paths are guessed by SetCustomPathAndConf again and again
* The default values of "work path / custom path / custom conf" can be
changed when compiling
# The solution
* Use `InitWorkPathAndCommonConfig` to handle these path tricks, and use
test code to cover its behaviors.
* When Gitea's web server runs, write the WORK_PATH to "app.ini", this
value must be the most correct one, because if this value is not right,
users would find that the web UI doesn't work and then they should be
able to fix it.
* Then all other sub-commands can use the WORK_PATH in app.ini to
initialize their paths.
* By the way, when Gitea starts for git protocol, it shouldn't output
any log, otherwise the git protocol gets broken and client blocks
forever.
The "work path" priority is: WORK_PATH in app.ini > cmd arg --work-path
> env var GITEA_WORK_DIR > builtin default
The "app.ini" searching order is: cmd arg --config > cmd arg "work path
/ custom path" > env var "work path / custom path" > builtin default
## ⚠️ BREAKING
If your instance's "work path / custom path / custom conf" doesn't meet
the requirements (eg: work path must be absolute), Gitea will report a
fatal error and exit. You need to set these values according to the
error log.

That's a longstanding INI package problem: the "MustXxx" calls change
the option values, and the following "Save" will save a lot of garbage
options into the user's config file.
Ideally we should refactor the INI package to a clear solution, but it's
a huge work.
A clear workaround is what this PR does: when "Save", load a clear INI
instance and save it.
Partially fix #25377, the "install" page needs more fine tunes.
### 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:
The [docker/build-push-action@v2
action](https://github.com/docker/build-push-action) by default ignores
the checkout created using the actions/checkout@v2 action. When you pass
a git build context to docker build, it wouldn't include the .git
directory.
By passing `context: .` to the build step then it'll use the Actions git
context which includes the git fetch from the earlier step.
Fix #21072
Username Attribute is not a required item when creating an
authentication source. If Username Attribute is empty, the username
value of LDAP user cannot be read, so all users from LDAP will be marked
as inactive by mistake when synchronizing external users.
This PR improves the sync logic, if username is empty, the email address
will be used to find user.
`docker-dryrun` runs on almost any PR, which is a huge waste of CI
resources. Run it only when the Dockerfiles change and also add a step
that verifies the rootless file.

- Reduce `pyproject.toml` and `package.json` to the minimal required
format, removing unneeded properties. `build-system` is not needed as
per
[this](https://github.com/python-poetry/poetry/issues/8110#issuecomment-1595846841).
- Fix `poetry.toml` options they were wrong previously.
- Add dependencies of poetry files to templates `files-changed`.

A regression of #25210
The `e.target` is not "this", eg: `<button link-action><svg></button>`,
then `this` should be `button` but `e.target` is `svg`.
I will propose a clearer and complete solution for these "link-action"
"show-modal" elements after #24724

If the APP_DATA_PATH isn't written into the config when installing, then
its value is uncertain because some Gitea command doesn't run with
correct WorkPath.
This is a quick fix for #25330 and can be backported.
- Update all JS dependencies
- Enable stylint
[`media-feature-name-value-no-unknown`](https://stylelint.io/user-guide/rules/media-feature-name-value-no-unknown)
- Make use of new features in webpack and text-expander-element
- Tested Swagger and Mermaid
To explain the `text-expander-element` change: Before this version, the
element added a unavoidable space after emoji completion. Now that
https://github.com/github/text-expander-element/pull/36 is in, we gain
control over this space and I opted to remove it for emoji completion
and retain it for `@` mentions.

1. The "web" package shouldn't depends on "modules/context" package,
instead, let each "web context" register themselves to the "web"
package.
2. The old Init/Free doesn't make sense, so simplify it
* The ctx in "Init(ctx)" is never used, and shouldn't be used that way
* The "Free" is never called and shouldn't be called because the SSPI
instance is shared

With the recent release of https://github.com/loft-sh/devpod making
ephemeral dev environments (ala GitPod/Codespaces) much easier (aka, no
pre-configured infra required). This allows an alternative to using
GitPod for such development options.
