Fixes three bugs discovered during live container testing. The critical bug was a bash post-increment no-op: `exitCode=$((exitCode++))` assigns the *old* value back to the variable, so exitCode stays 0 even when a download fails. This caused the Docker build to succeed silently when the gitea binary download failed, publishing a broken image to Docker Hub. - rootfs/root/docker/setup/05-custom.sh: change exitCode=$((exitCode++)) to exitCode=$((exitCode + 1)) in both the gitea and act_runner failure handlers - rootfs/usr/local/bin/entrypoint.sh: change CONTAINER_NAME and description from "archlinux" (copied template default) to "gitea" - rootfs/usr/local/etc/docker/init.d/08-gitea.sh: remove leading space from [ -d " /config/ssh" ] path test so the directory existence check is correct .claude/ rootfs/root/docker/setup/05-custom.sh rootfs/usr/local/bin/entrypoint.sh rootfs/usr/local/etc/docker/init.d/08-gitea.sh
gitea
An all-in-one Alpine-based Docker image that bundles Gitea (self-hosted Git service), Docker-in-Docker (dockerd), and act_runner (Gitea Actions CI runner) into a single container. Designed for teams that want a complete self-hosted Git + CI/CD stack without orchestrating multiple containers. Gitea is pre-configured with Actions enabled, SSH access, LFS, and five act_runner worker instances that register automatically on first boot.

Note:
--privilegedis required — the container runs a full Docker daemon (DinD) and needs cgroup v2 access.
