Okay so your post inspired me to make the switch. All I had to do was switch out the image to the forgejo one. Everything worked right away. To try to make things as clean as possible, I went ahead and renamed my bind volume paths and app.ini stuff from gitea to forgejo but no matter what I tried, once I started the container, the container would create a gitea directory with a new app.ini. I even tried to run the forgejo compose on another host and the app still creates a gitea directory within the bind mount. Am I doing something wrong. I understand it’s a drop in replacement but I’m sure there’s a way to get a cleaner cut over.
compose.yml
volumes:
./data:/data
Host directories
~/forgejo
data
- forgejo - renamed for the migration
- git
- ssh
- gitea - gets created by the app no matter what I do or what paths are set in app.ini
compose.yml
How do I keep forgejo from creating this gitea directory? Why doesn’t it create a forgejo directory???
Edit: gitea version was - 1.21.7 and forgejo replacement image is 1.21.7-0
