Arbinel documentation

Arbinel is a soft fork of Forgejo that adds what a public, multi-tenant forge needs, and stays compatible with Forgejo in both directions.

Arbinel inherits almost everything from Forgejo. These pages do not repeat Forgejo’s documentation. They cover what Arbinel adds or changes, and a few Forgejo topics that its own documentation leaves unclear. For anything not covered here, Forgejo’s documentation for the release Arbinel is built on applies unchanged.
