Guides
Written guides land here; the rest arrive as the tool stabilises.
Per-arch download, SHA-256 verification, and where the binary lives.
Zero to a running Gitea with CI in three commands.
Declarative app.ini — render from a template, diff before you write, apply atomically with a backup and automatic rollback.
Generate, check, and rotate the four Gitea secrets in /etc/gitea/secrets.ini — kept separate from your config template.
The gitea and gitea-runner units gtcnsl installs, and the standard systemctl / journalctl commands to operate them.
Keep gtcnsl current with verified self-update, move Gitea forward safely, and roll back when a release misbehaves.
When to reach for the interactive terminal UI and when to script the CLI — and why the bare command is safe in pipelines.
The distributions and architectures gtcnsl is tested on, and the handful of things the static binary needs from the host.
Read gtcnsl's exit codes and logs, run doctor, and fix the errors people hit first.
