Alpine splits git-http-backend OUT of the `git` package: git alone ships git-remote-http/https but not the CGI backend. The runner therefore had git 2.52.0 and no git-http-backend, so zegit's internal/forgeprobe smart-HTTP tests failed at request time with "fork/exec git-http-backend: no such file or directory" and reported three FAILURES for a missing tool. That turned Gitea CI red on every zegit master commit while GitHub stayed green, for hours, with nobody looking — GitHub is the release oracle, which is exactly why a red mirror is invisible. Verified against the real base image, not just alpine:3 — on code.forgejo.org/forgejo/runner:12.11.1 (Alpine 3.23), `apk add git git-daemon` puts git-http-backend at /usr/libexec/git-core/git-http-backend, and `git --exec-path` resolves to that directory, which is the lookup the test harness performs.

# Custom toolchain image for the self-hosted Gitea Actions (Forgejo) runner.
|
|
#
|
|
# The cluster runs act_runner in *host mode* (docker disabled), so workflow steps
|
|
# execute INSIDE this image. The stock forgejo/runner image is minimal and lacks
|
|
# node (needed by JS actions: actions/checkout, setup-go, ...), git, make, etc.
|
|
# The runner pod is non-root with all caps dropped, so it cannot apt/apk-add at
|
|
# runtime -- the tools must be baked in here.
|
|
#
|
|
# Build multi-arch (cluster is mixed amd64/arm64) and push to the Gitea registry:
|
|
#
|
|
# docker buildx create --use --name zegit-ci 2>/dev/null || true
|
|
# docker login gitea.langenoja.se # username + a Gitea personal access token
|
|
# docker buildx build --platform linux/amd64,linux/arm64 \
|
|
# -t gitea.langenoja.se/zegit-zoo/zegit-forgejo-runner:12.11.1-ci --push .
|
|
#
|
|
# Then in flux-config set both containers' image: to the tag above and commit.
|
|
# Package visibility is PUBLIC, so the runner namespace pulls without a secret.
