WebKit was removed from the e2e tests in https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/37315 because Linux WebKit kept crashing. The crashes came from a use-after-free in the libsoup bundled with WebKit, which killed the network process and surfaced as `WebKit encountered an internal error`. macOS WebKit never had them because it does not use libsoup. Playwright 1.64 bundles libsoup 3.6.6 with the fix (https://github.com/microsoft/playwright/issues/42803), so WebKit now runs on all platforms. Builds on https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/40140. The e2e job ran 50 times on `ubuntu-latest` with WebKit enabled, and all runs passed without WebKit errors. The third browser adds about 1.5 to 2 minutes per run. 1. Playwright installs its system dependencies on GitHub runners too, which only come with the Chromium and Firefox libraries 1. The passkey test skips Linux WebKit, which has no WebAuthn, Playwright only stubs `PublicKeyCredential` there --------- Signed-off-by: silverwind <me@silverwind.io>
Gitea
Purpose
The goal of Gitea is to make the easiest, fastest, and most painless way of setting up a self-hosted all-in-one software development service, including Git hosting, code management, code review, issue tracking, project kanban, wiki, team collaboration, package registry and CI/CD which can reuse GitHub Actions.
As Gitea is written in Go, it works across all the platforms and architectures that are supported by Go, including Linux, macOS, FreeBSD/OpenBSD and Windows on x86, amd64, ARM, RISC-V 64 and PowerPC architectures.
For online demonstrations, you can visit demo.gitea.com.
For accessing free Gitea service (with a limited number of repositories), you can visit gitea.com.
To quickly deploy your own dedicated Gitea instance on Gitea Cloud, you can start a free trial at cloud.gitea.com, or use container (docker/podman/etc) to deploy on your own server with the official image.
Documentation
You can find comprehensive documentation on our official documentation website.
It includes installation, administration, usage, development, contributing guides, and more to help you get started and explore all features effectively.
