Comment

Forgejo supports 'Push to Create', a feature that allows users and organizations to create repositories from the command line as follows:

git remote add origin https://codeberg.org/bramh/new-repo.git
git push

This feature requires the ENABLE_PUSH_CREATE_USER setting to be set to true (and ENABLE_PUSH_CREATE_ORG to enable the feature for organizations too). This feature is currently not enabled, as the commands above give the following output:

Forgejo: Push to create is not enabled for users.

I am interested in using this feature to optimize my workflow, is this something that can be enabled on Codeberg?

enabling push to create on a public instance like Codeberg could easily result in denial of service attacks, due to malicious users pushing very large repositories in a short span of time.

also you could just use the Forgejo API to easily create repositories

also you could just use the [Forgejo API](/api/swagger) to easily create repositories

Just another duplicate, e.g. see #1622

We won't enable push-to-create on Codeberg, primarily because it results mostly in "dump and forget" repositories that don't have description or otherwise useful setup information and are generally not beneficial to the free software ecosystem at all.

If the work you want to push is not worth about one minute of setup in the web UI, it is probably not worth hosting for us.

If you want to live with the commandline, consider using command-line clients for Forgejo.

How would command-line clients for Forgejo reduce "dump and forget" risks ? Why would it be different from just using git ?
