From 487ac9bf6c239ce897f1a2f6c4321d6f1769a22f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jason Song Date: Thu, 14 Mar 2024 16:44:49 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] Support GITEA_I_AM_BEING_UNSAFE_RUNNING_AS_ROOT env (#29788) It is convenient to skip by setting environment, since it's OK to use root user in job containers. It's not a bug, but I want to backport it to v1.21 since it doesn't break anything. --------- Co-authored-by: Giteabot Co-authored-by: wxiaoguang --- modules/setting/setting.go | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) diff --git a/modules/setting/setting.go b/modules/setting/setting.go index 6e7ce7e67f..13821da44d 100644 --- a/modules/setting/setting.go +++ b/modules/setting/setting.go @@ -13,6 +13,7 @@ import ( "code.gitea.io/gitea/modules/log" "code.gitea.io/gitea/modules/user" + "code.gitea.io/gitea/modules/util" ) // settings @@ -158,9 +159,11 @@ func loadCommonSettingsFrom(cfg ConfigProvider) error { func loadRunModeFrom(rootCfg ConfigProvider) { rootSec := rootCfg.Section("") RunUser = rootSec.Key("RUN_USER").MustString(user.CurrentUsername()) + // The following is a purposefully undocumented option.
