We need to clone a non-bare repository for `git read-tree -m` to work.
bb371aee6e
adds support to create a non-bare cloned temporary upload repository.
After cloning a non-bare temporary upload repository, we [set default
index](https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/blob/main/services/repository/files/cherry_pick.go#L37)
(`git read-tree HEAD`).
This operation ends up resetting the git index file (see investigation
details below), due to which, we need to call `git update-index
--refresh` afterward.
Here's the diff of the index file before and after we execute
SetDefaultIndex: https://www.diffchecker.com/hyOP3eJy/
Notice the **ctime**, **mtime** are set to 0 after SetDefaultIndex.
You can reproduce the same behavior using these steps:
```bash
$ git clone https://try.gitea.io/me-heer/test.git -s -b main
$ cd test
$ git read-tree HEAD
$ git read-tree -m 1f085d7ed8 1f085d7ed8 9933caed00
error: Entry '1' not uptodate. Cannot merge.
```
After which, we can fix like this:
```bash
$ git update-index --refresh
$ git read-tree -m 1f085d7ed8 1f085d7ed8 9933caed00
```
Gitea - Git with a cup of tea
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, the required version is defined in go.mod.make frontend
which requires Node.js LTS or greater.
Internet connectivity is required to download the go and npm modules. 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.
Parallelism (make -j <num>
) is not supported.

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.
