Hi,

I am a newbie trying to install gitea from binary, and failing badly so far. I'm finding the installation instructions poorly organised (e.g. installation from binary, packages and source are followed by creating services in windows and linux and then we return to installation from docker, kubernates etc. At least make the creating services subheadings, or if they apply to the docker installations put the services info after the installation of the gitea program. Another problem is that the config files, often offered as cut and paste, are inconsistent, especially when it comes to the working directory ( /var/lib/gitea, /home/git/gitea and even /home/git/go/src/github.com/go-gitea/gitea/ in the supervisor config file). I would strongly suggest that there be an unbroken line in the binary installation description that includes all necessary configuration files from the database preparation to installing and testing a single file repository. I'd offer to help, but I haven't yet managed to install it after spending about 5 hours so far.

Gitea Version

Gitea version 1.21.0+rc0-69-g44aca6a65 built with GNU Make 4.3, go1.21.1 : bindata, sqlite, sqlite_unlock_notify

Can you reproduce the bug on the Gitea demo site?
