Forgejo Documentation
This is the documentation for Forgejo and is published on the Forgejo website.
The main development branch of this repo is the
next
branch,
which documents the version of Forgejo that is currently being developed.
Each time a new major version of Forgejo is released, a new branch will be created in this repo to document the stable release.
Current release branches are as follows:
Documentation content lives in the docs
subfolder, and images in the images
subfolder.
Contributing
Pull Requests
PRs should usually be sent against the next
branch.
Sometimes it will be appropriate to send a PR against a specific release branch if the changes only affect that release.
Most changes should either be sent as a single commit per PR, or should be squashed before merging. Fast-forwarding is the preferred merge strategy. Changes can then be backported (or if appropriate frontported) by cherry-picking.
Rarely, it will make sense to create a feature branch containting a series of commits that will be merged instead of squashing and fast-forwarding. Such a feature branch can then be merged into multiple versions of the docs if appropriate. In this case, the feature branch should usually be taken from the last common ancestor of all of the version branches into which it will potentially be merged.

All internal links within the documentation content should be relative to each page's path
