From 6c992b5d93820058087355bb973457e026d56a04 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Earl Warren Date: Sun, 10 Dec 2023 19:39:31 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] [DOCS] RELEASE-NOTES.md (squash) move customized files make it more prominently visible --- RELEASE-NOTES.md | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/RELEASE-NOTES.md b/RELEASE-NOTES.md index 95886e509f..9730ed10f0 100644 --- a/RELEASE-NOTES.md +++ b/RELEASE-NOTES.md @@ -62,6 +62,7 @@ $ git -C forgejo log --oneline --no-merges origin/v1.20/forgejo..origin/v1.21/fo will be portable from one version to another (even a patch version). A [Q&A discussion is available](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/discussions/issues/84) to share tips and tricks. A new section was also added [to the developer documentation about interface customization](https://forgejo.org/docs/v1.21/developer/customization/). + - If you have custom asset files, e.g. custom themes, inside `custom/public/*` (css included), you need to transfer these files to `custom/public/assets/*` for them to be detected. Read more [in the documentation](https://forgejo.org/docs/v1.21/developer/customization/) and the [Q&A discussion dedicated to interface customization](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/discussions/issues/84). - Git [branches are stored in the databases](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/commit/6e19484f4d3bf372212f2da462110a1a8c10cbf2) to reduce the calls to a git process and improve performances. After upgrading, login as an admin, go to the `/admin` page and click run **Sync missed branches from git data to databases**. If this is not done there will be messages such as `LoadBranches: branch does not exist` in the logs. - [Some Forgejo CLI options have changed](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/commit/d0dbe52e76f3038777c3b50066e3636105387ca3) and scripts may need to be updated. For instance `--verbose` is no longer a global option and is implemented on a per sub-command basis. Check `forgejo --help` or `forgejo docs` for more information. - [Remove "CHARSET" config option for MySQL and always use "utf8mb4"](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/commit/ce46834b938eb687152a680669ada95a26304178). It has been a requirement for years and specifying anything else is likely to cause issues. Existing MySQL databases still using `utf8` can be converted using the CLI: `forgejo doctor convert`.
