Update docs about attachment path (#26883 )

This change was caused by #26271, for configuration as below:
```
[attachment]
ENABLE = true
PATH = data/attachments
MAX_SIZE = 100
MAX_FILES = 5
```
Before #26271, the resolved path is ${AppWorkPath}/${attachments.PATH}
(such as `/var/lib/gitea/data/attachments`)
After #26271, the resolved path is ${AppDataPath}/${attachments.PATH}
(such as `/var/lib/gitea/data/data/attachments`)

Configuration Cheat Sheet

This is a cheat sheet for the Gitea configuration file. It contains most of the settings that can be configured as well as their default values.

Any changes to the Gitea configuration file should be made in custom/conf/app.ini or any corresponding location. When installing from a distribution, this will typically be found at /etc/gitea/conf/app.ini.

The defaults provided here are best-effort (not built automatically). They are accurately recorded in app.example.ini (s/main/<tag|release>). Any string in the format %(X)s is a feature powered by ini, for reading values recursively.

In the default values below, a value in the form $XYZ refers to an environment variable. (However, see environment-to-ini.) Values in the form XxYyZz refer to values listed as part of the default configuration. These notation forms will not work in your own app.ini file and are only listed here as documentation.

Values containing # or ; must be quoted using ` or """.

Note: A full restart is required for Gitea configuration changes to take effect.

Default Configuration (non-`app.ini` configuration)

These values are environment-dependent but form the basis of a lot of values. They will be reported as part of the default configuration when running gitea help or on start-up. The order they are emitted there is slightly different but we will list them here in the order they are set-up.

AppPath: This is the absolute path of the running gitea binary.
AppWorkPath: This refers to "working path" of the gitea binary. It is determined by using the first set thing in the following hierarchy:
- The WORK_PATH option in app.ini
- The --work-path flag passed to the binary
- The environment variable $GITEA_WORK_DIR
- A built-in value set at build time (see building from source)
- Otherwise, it defaults to the directory of the AppPath
- If any of the above are relative paths then they are made absolute against the directory of the AppPath
CustomPath: This is the base directory for custom templates and other options. It is determined by using the first set thing in the following hierarchy:
- The --custom-path flag passed to the binary
- The environment variable $GITEA_CUSTOM
- A built-in value set at build time (see building from source)
- Otherwise, it defaults to AppWorkPath/custom
- If any of the above are relative paths then they are made absolute against the the directory of the AppWorkPath
CustomConf: This is the path to the app.ini file.
- The --config flag passed to the binary
- A built-in value set at build time (see building from source)
- Otherwise, it defaults to CustomPath/conf/app.ini
- If any of the above are relative paths then they are made absolute against the directory of the CustomPath

In addition, there is StaticRootPath which can be set as a built-in at build time, but will otherwise default to AppWorkPath

Overall (`DEFAULT`)

APP_NAME: Gitea: Git with a cup of tea: Application name, used in the page title.
RUN_USER: current OS username/$USER/$USERNAME e.g. git: The user Gitea will run as. This should be a dedicated system (non-user) account. Setting this incorrectly will cause Gitea to not start.
RUN_MODE: prod: Application run mode, affects performance and debugging: dev or prod, default is prod. Mode dev makes Gitea easier to develop and debug, values other than dev are treated as prod which is for production use.
WORK_PATH: the-work-path: The working directory, see the comment of AppWorkPath above.

Repository (`repository`)

ROOT: %(APP_DATA_PATH)s/gitea-repositories: Root path for storing all repository data. A relative path is interpreted as AppWorkPath/%(ROOT)s.
SCRIPT_TYPE: bash: The script type this server supports. Usually this is bash, but some users report that only sh is available.

Adding defaults will place the unnamed charsets at that point.
ANSI_CHARSET: empty: Default ANSI charset to override non-UTF-8 charsets to.
FORCE_PRIVATE: false: Force every new repository to be private.
DEFAULT_PRIVATE: last: Default private when creating a new repository.

Allowed values: [repo.code, repo.releases, repo.issues, repo.pulls, repo.wiki, repo.projects, repo.packages, repo.actions]. Note: Code and Releases can currently not be deactivated. If you specify default repo units you should still list them for future compatibility. External wiki and issue tracker can't be enabled by default as it requires additional settings. Disabled repo units will not be added to new repositories regardless if it is in the default list.

Requests are then made as %(ROOT_URL)s/static/assets/css/index.css or https://cdn.example.com/assets/css/index.css respectively. The static files are located in the public/ directory of the Gitea source repository. You can proxy the STATIC_URL_PREFIX requests to Gitea server to serve the static assets, or copy the manually built Gitea assets from $GITEA_BUILD/public to the assets location, eg: /var/www/assets, make sure $STATIC_URL_PREFIX/assets/css/index.css points to /var/www/assets/css/index.css.

LOCAL_ROOT_URL: %(PROTOCOL)s://%(HTTP_ADDR)s:%(HTTP_PORT)s/: Local (DMZ) URL for Gitea workers (such as SSH update) accessing web service. In most cases you do not need to change the default value. Alter it only if your SSH server node is not the same as HTTP node. For different protocol, the default values are different. If PROTOCOL is http+unix, the default value is http://unix/. If PROTOCOL is fcgi or fcgi+unix, the default value is %(PROTOCOL)s://%(HTTP_ADDR)s:%(HTTP_PORT)s/. If listen on 0.0.0.0, the default value is %(PROTOCOL)s://localhost:%(HTTP_PORT)s/, Otherwise the default value is %(PROTOCOL)s://%(HTTP_ADDR)s:%(HTTP_PORT)s/.

DISABLE_GIT_HOOKS: true: Set to false to enable users with Git Hook privilege to create custom Git Hooks. WARNING: Custom Git Hooks can be used to perform arbitrary code execution on the host operating system. This enables the users to access and modify this config file and the Gitea database and interrupt the Gitea service. By modifying the Gitea database, users can gain Gitea administrator privileges. It also enables them to access other resources available to the user on the operating system that is running the Gitea instance and perform arbitrary actions in the name of the Gitea OS user. This maybe harmful to you website or your operating system. Setting this to true does not change existing hooks in git repos; adjust it before if necessary.
DISABLE_WEBHOOKS: false: Set to true to disable webhooks feature.
ONLY_ALLOW_PUSH_IF_GITEA_ENVIRONMENT_SET: true: Set to false to allow local users to push to gitea-repositories without setting up the Gitea environment. This is not recommended and if you want local users to push to Gitea repositories you should set the environment appropriately.

PASSWORD_HASH_ALGO: pbkdf2: The hash algorithm to use [argon2, pbkdf2, pbkdf2_v1, pbkdf2_hi, scrypt, bcrypt], argon2 and scrypt will spend significant amounts of memory.
- Note: The default parameters for pbkdf2 hashing have changed - the previous settings are available as pbkdf2_v1 but are not recommended.
- The hash functions may be tuned by using $ after the algorithm:
  - argon2$<time>$<memory>$<threads>$<key-length>
  - bcrypt$<cost>
  - pbkdf2$<iterations>$<key-length>
  - scrypt$<n>$<r>$<p>$<key-length>
- The defaults are:
  - argon2: argon2$2$65536$8$50
  - bcrypt: bcrypt$10
  - pbkdf2: pbkdf2$50000$50
  - pbkdf2_v1: pbkdf2$10000$50

PASSWORD_CHECK_PWN: false: Check HaveIBeenPwned to see if a password has been exposed.
SUCCESSFUL_TOKENS_CACHE_SIZE: 20: Cache successful token hashes. API tokens are stored in the DB as pbkdf2 hashes however, this means that there is a potentially significant hashing load when there are multiple API operations. This cache will store the successfully hashed tokens in a LRU cache as a balance between performance and security.

- sanitized: Sanitize the content and render it inside current page, default to only allow a few HTML tags and attributes. Customized sanitizer rules can be defined in [markup.sanitizer.*].
- no-sanitizer: Disable the sanitizer and render the content inside current page. It's insecure and may lead to XSS attack if the content contains malicious code.
- iframe: Render the content in a separate standalone page and embed it into current page by iframe. The iframe is in sandbox mode with same-origin disabled, and the JS code are safely isolated from parent page.

Two special environment variables are passed to the render command:

GITEA_PREFIX_SRC, which contains the current URL prefix in the src path tree. To be used as prefix for links.
GITEA_PREFIX_RAW, which contains the current URL prefix in the raw path tree. To be used as prefix for image paths.

If RENDER_CONTENT_MODE is sanitized, Gitea supports customizing the sanitization policy for rendered HTML. The example below will support KaTeX output from pandoc.

[markup.sanitizer.TeX]
; Pandoc renders TeX segments as <span>s with the "math" class, optionally
; with "inline" or "display" classes depending on context.
ELEMENT = span
ALLOW_ATTR = class
REGEXP = ^\s*((math(\s+|$)|inline(\s+|$)|display(\s+|$)))+
ALLOW_DATA_URI_IMAGES = true

ELEMENT: The element this policy applies to. Must be non-empty.
ALLOW_ATTR: The attribute this policy allows. Must be non-empty.
REGEXP: A regex to match the contents of the attribute against. Must be present but may be empty for unconditional whitelisting of this attribute.
ALLOW_DATA_URI_IMAGES: false Allow data uri images (<img src="data:image/png;base64,..."/>).

Multiple sanitisation rules can be defined by adding unique subsections, e.g. [markup.sanitizer.TeX-2]. To apply a sanitisation rules only for a specify external renderer they must use the renderer name, e.g. [markup.sanitizer.asciidoc.rule-1]. If the rule is defined above the renderer ini section or the name does not match a renderer it is applied to every renderer.

Highlight Mappings (`highlight.mapping`)

file_extension e.g. .toml: language e.g. ini. File extension to language mapping overrides.
Gitea will highlight files using the linguist-language or gitlab-language attribute from the .gitattributes file if available. If this is not set or the language is unavailable, the file extension will be looked up in this mapping or the filetype using heuristics.

Time (`time`)

DEFAULT_UI_LOCATION: Default location of time on the UI, so that we can display correct user's time on UI. i.e. Asia/Shanghai

Task (`task`)

Task queue configuration has been moved to queue.task. However, the below configuration values are kept for backwards compatibility:

QUEUE_TYPE: channel: Task queue type, could be channel or redis.
QUEUE_LENGTH: 1000: Task queue length, available only when QUEUE_TYPE is channel.
QUEUE_CONN_STR: redis://127.0.0.1:6379/0: Task queue connection string, available only when QUEUE_TYPE is redis. If redis needs a password, use redis://123@127.0.0.1:6379/0 or redis+cluster://123@127.0.0.1:6379/0.

STORAGE_TYPE: local: Storage type for lfs, local for local disk or minio for s3 compatible object storage service or other name defined with [storage.xxx]
SERVE_DIRECT: false: Allows the storage driver to redirect to authenticated URLs to serve files directly. Currently, only Minio/S3 is supported via signed URLs, local does nothing.
PATH: ./data/lfs: Where to store LFS files, only available when STORAGE_TYPE is local. If not set it fall back to deprecated LFS_CONTENT_PATH value in [server] section.

The recommanded storage configuration for minio like below:

[storage]
STORAGE_TYPE = minio
; Minio endpoint to connect only available when STORAGE_TYPE is `minio`
MINIO_ENDPOINT = localhost:9000
; Minio accessKeyID to connect only available when STORAGE_TYPE is `minio`
MINIO_ACCESS_KEY_ID =
; Minio secretAccessKey to connect only available when STORAGE_TYPE is `minio`
MINIO_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY =

MINIO_USE_SSL = false
; Minio skip SSL verification available when STORAGE_TYPE is `minio`
MINIO_INSECURE_SKIP_VERIFY = false
SERVE_DIRECT = true

Defaultly every storage has their default base path like below

storage	default base path
attachments	attachments/
lfs	lfs/
avatars	avatars/
repo-avatars	repo-avatars/
repo-archive	repo-archive/
packages	packages/
actions_log	actions_log/
actions_artifacts	actions_artifacts/

And bucket, basepath or SERVE_DIRECT could be special or overrided, if you want to use a different you can:

[storage.actions_log]
MINIO_BUCKET = gitea_actions_log
SERVE_DIRECT = true
MINIO_BASE_PATH = my_actions_log/ ; default is actions_log/ if blank

If you want to customerize a different storage for lfs if above default storage defined

[lfs]
STORAGE_TYPE = my_minio

[storage.my_minio]
STORAGE_TYPE = minio
; Minio endpoint to connect only available when STORAGE_TYPE is `minio`
MINIO_ENDPOINT = localhost:9000
; Minio accessKeyID to connect only available when STORAGE_TYPE is `minio`
MINIO_ACCESS_KEY_ID =
; Minio secretAccessKey to connect only available when STORAGE_TYPE is `minio`
MINIO_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY =
; Minio bucket to store the attachments only available when STORAGE_TYPE is `minio`
MINIO_BUCKET = gitea
; Minio location to create bucket only available when STORAGE_TYPE is `minio`
MINIO_LOCATION = us-east-1
; Minio enabled ssl only available when STORAGE_TYPE is `minio`
MINIO_USE_SSL = false
; Minio skip SSL verification available when STORAGE_TYPE is `minio`
MINIO_INSECURE_SKIP_VERIFY = false

STORAGE_TYPE: local: Storage type for repo archive, local for local disk or minio for s3 compatible object storage service or other name defined with [storage.xxx]
SERVE_DIRECT: false: Allows the storage driver to redirect to authenticated URLs to serve files directly. Currently, only Minio/S3 is supported via signed URLs, local does nothing.
PATH: ./data/repo-archive: Where to store archive files, only available when STORAGE_TYPE is local.
MINIO_ENDPOINT: localhost:9000: Minio endpoint to connect only available when STORAGE_TYPE is minio
MINIO_ACCESS_KEY_ID: Minio accessKeyID to connect only available when STORAGE_TYPE is minio
MINIO_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: Minio secretAccessKey to connect only available when STORAGE_TYPE is minio
MINIO_BUCKET: gitea: Minio bucket to store the lfs only available when STORAGE_TYPE is minio

MINIO_BASE_PATH: repo-archive/: Minio base path on the bucket only available when STORAGE_TYPE is minio

Proxy (`proxy`)

PROXY_ENABLED: false: Enable the proxy if true, all requests to external via HTTP will be affected, if false, no proxy will be used even environment http_proxy/https_proxy
PROXY_URL: empty: Proxy server URL, support http://, https//, socks://, blank will follow environment http_proxy/https_proxy
PROXY_HOSTS: empty: Comma separated list of host names requiring proxy. Glob patterns (*) are accepted; use ** to match all hosts.

i.e.

PROXY_ENABLED = true
PROXY_URL = socks://127.0.0.1:1080
PROXY_HOSTS = *.github.com

Actions (`actions`)

ENABLED: false: Enable/Disable actions capabilities
DEFAULT_ACTIONS_URL: github: Default platform to get action plugins, github for https://github.com, self for the current Gitea instance.
STORAGE_TYPE: local: Storage type for actions logs, local for local disk or minio for s3 compatible object storage service, default is local or other name defined with [storage.xxx]
MINIO_BASE_PATH: actions_log/: Minio base path on the bucket only available when STORAGE_TYPE is minio

DEFAULT_ACTIONS_URL indicates where the Gitea Actions runners should find the actions with relative path. For example, uses: actions/checkout@v3 means https://github.com/actions/checkout@v3 since the value of DEFAULT_ACTIONS_URL is github. And it can be changed to self to make it root_url_of_your_gitea/actions/checkout@v3.

Please note that using self is not recommended for most cases, as it could make names globally ambiguous. Additionally, it requires you to mirror all the actions you need to your Gitea instance, which may not be worth it. Therefore, please use self only if you understand what you are doing.

In earlier versions (<= 1.19), DEFAULT_ACTIONS_URL cound be set to any custom URLs like https://gitea.com or http://your-git-server,https://gitea.com, and the default value was https://gitea.com. However, later updates removed those options, and now the only options are github and self, with the default value being github. However, if you want to use actions from other git server, you can use a complete URL in uses field, it's supported by Gitea (but not GitHub). Like uses: https://gitea.com/actions/checkout@v3 or uses: http://your-git-server/actions/checkout@v3.
