Forgejo 17.0 changes how repository links resolve in rendered documents

forgejo.org 7 min read Editor score 6/10

Forgejo 17.0 resolves absolute links to repository resources from the repository root, changing their previous instance-root behavior; the release also warns users to review breaking changes before upgrading. The link change is intended to improve compatibility with other Git forges and ease migrations.

What

- Forgejo 17.0 resolves absolute links to repository resources from the repository root in rendered documents, rather than the instance root.

How

- Action-run webhook events are deprecated in favor of workflow-run events; existing webhooks need manual migration because headers and the action key changed.

Why it matters

- Repository-root link resolution improves compatibility with other Git forges and makes migrations to Forgejo easier.
