|

if that is not related to your PR, please make *another* PR for that.
|
||||
* Split big pull requests into multiple small ones. An incremental change
|
||||
will be faster to review than a huge PR.
|
||||
* Use the first comment as a summary explainer of your PR and you should keep this up-to-date as the PR evolves.
|
||||
|
||||
If your PR could cause a breaking change you must add a BREAKING section to this comment e.g.:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
## :warning: BREAKING :warning:
|
||||
```
|
||||
|

To explain how this could affect users and how to mitigate these changes.

@ -203,13 +212,74 @@ In general, HTTP methods are chosen as follows:
|
|||
* **PUT** endpoints return status **No Content (204)**, used to **add/assign** existing Objects (e.g. User) to something (e.g. Org-Team)
|
||||
* **PATCH** endpoints return changed object and status **OK (200)**, used to **edit/change** an existing object
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
An endpoint which changes/edits an object expects all fields to be optional (except ones to identify the object, which are required).
|
||||
|
||||
### Endpoints returning lists should
|
||||
* support pagination (`page` & `limit` options in query)
|
||||
* set `X-Total-Count` header via **SetTotalCountHeader** ([example](https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/blob/7aae98cc5d4113f1e9918b7ee7dd09f67c189e3e/routers/api/v1/repo/issue.go#L444))

## Large Character Comments
|
||||
|
||||
Throughout the codebase there are large-text comments for sections of code, e.g.:
|
||||
|
||||
```go
|
||||
// __________ .__
|
||||
// \______ \ _______ _|__| ______ _ __
|
||||
// | _// __ \ \/ / |/ __ \ \/ \/ /
|
||||
// | | \ ___/\ /| \ ___/\ /
|
||||
// |____|_ /\___ >\_/ |__|\___ >\/\_/
|
||||
// \/ \/ \/
|
||||
```
|

|
||||
These were created using the `figlet` tool with the `graffiti` font.
|
||||
|
||||
A simple way of creating these is to use the following:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
figlet -f graffiti Review | sed -e's+^+// +' - | xclip -sel clip -in
|
||||
```
|

|
||||
## Backports and Frontports
|
||||
|
||||
Occasionally backports of PRs are required.
|
||||
|
||||
The backported PR title should be:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Title of backported PR (#ORIGINAL_PR_NUMBER)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The first two lines of the summary of the backporting PR should be:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Backport #ORIGINAL_PR_NUMBER
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
with the rest of the summary matching the original PR. Similarly for frontports

||||

The below is a script that may be helpful in creating backports. YMMV.

||||
|
||||
```bash

||||

|
||||
PR="$1"
|
||||
SHA="$2"

VERSION="$3"

||||
SHA=$(gh api /repos/go-gitea/gitea/pulls/$PR -q '.merge_commit_sha')

|
||||
|
||||
if [ -z "$VERSION" ]; then
|
||||

* If needed send a frontport PR for the changelog to branch `main` and update the version in `docs/config.yaml` to refer to the new version.

* Send PR to [blog repository](https://gitea.com/gitea/blog) announcing the release.
