Arunavo Ray 384fbbbe10 docs: document Header / Forward Authentication setup
Header auth has been a working feature since v2.x but was missing from
SSO-OIDC-SETUP.md, leading users to think it was dropped in the v3
rewrite (see #29). Adds a dedicated section covering env-var config,
Authentik + Authelia examples, lookup order, verification, and the
must-strip-inbound-headers security checklist.

Gitea Mirror Documentation

This folder contains engineering and operations references for the open-source Gitea Mirror project. Each guide focuses on the parts of the system that still require bespoke explanation beyond the in-app help and the main README.md.

Reliability & recovery

Authentication

  • SSO-OIDC-SETUP.md Configure OIDC/SSO providers through the admin UI.
  • SSO_TESTING.md Recipes for local and staging SSO testing (Google, Keycloak, mock providers).

If you are looking for customer-facing playbooks, see the MDX use cases under www/src/pages/use-cases/.

Quick start for local development

git clone https://github.com/RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror.git
cd gitea-mirror
bun run setup           # installs deps and seeds the SQLite DB
bun run dev             # starts the Astro/Bun app on http://localhost:4321

The first user you create locally becomes the administrator. All other configuration—GitHub owners, Gitea targets, scheduling, cleanup—is done through the Configuration screen in the UI.
