Description

After set DISABLE_DOWNLOAD_SOURCE_ARCHIVES = true in app.ini file， and restart gitea. But it's still there.
Same issue : https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/issues/20685 , I saw the fix https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/20701 but still the same problem on Gitea 1.8.3 (Windows 64 version : gitea-1.18.3-gogit-windows-4.0-amd64.exe )

It's annoying because on big repo this functionality try to zip all the repo which can break server performances.

Screenshots

1.8.3

Browser Version

However, if you click the button, you will see there's no download link:

I know it's confusing, so in the next version (probably v1.19.0), it will look like:

Oh indeed ! I was afraid to click on it because last time it has almost killed my instance during the zip process due to high demanding ressources.
Thank you.
