In forgejo/forgejo!2834 and forgejo/forgejo!5307 it was made so it's no longer possible to modify and delete internal reference, not having this restriction lead to broken pull requests when people used something like `git push --mirror`. However it now still leads to problem with that command as the git client tries to delete such references. We can solve this by using git's `receive.hideRefs` to make this ref read-only and avoid advertising it when someone does `git push --mirror`.

Hi there! Tired of big platforms playing monopoly?
Providing Git hosting for your project, friends, company or community?
Forgejo (/for'd͡ʒe.jo/ inspired by forĝejo – the Esperanto word for forge) has you covered with its intuitive interface,
light and easy hosting and a lot of built-in functionality.
Forgejo was created in 2022
because we think that the project should be owned by an independent community.
If you second that, then Forgejo is for you!
Our promise: Independent Free/Libre Software forever!
What does Forgejo offer?
If you like any of the following, Forgejo is literally meant for you:
Lightweight: Forgejo can easily be hosted on nearly every machine.
Running on a Raspberry? Small cloud instance? No problem!
Project management: Besides Git hosting, Forgejo offers issues,
pull requests, wikis, kanban boards and much more to coordinate with your team.
Publishing: Have something to share? Use releases to host your software for download,
or use the package registry to publish it for docker, npm and many other package managers.
Customizable: Want to change your look? Change some settings?
There are many config switches to make Forgejo work exactly like you want.
Powerful: Organizations & team permissions, CI integration, Code Search, LDAP, OAuth and much more.
If you have advanced needs, Forgejo has you covered.
Privacy: From update checker to default settings: Forgejo is built to be privacy first for you and your crew.
Federation: (WIP) We are actively working to connect software forges with each other through ActivityPub,
and create a collaborative network of personal instances.
Forgejo is distributed under the terms of the GPL version 3.0 or any later version.
The agreement for this license was documented in June 2023 and implemented during the development of Forgejo v9.0. All Forgejo versions before v9.0 are distributed under the MIT license.
