Description

Observed in the log:

2024/01/30 08:13:20 ...exer/code/indexer.go:128:func2() [E] Codes indexer handler: index error for repo 329: fork/exec C:/Program Files/Git/bin/git.exe: The filename or extension is too long.
2024/01/30 08:13:20 ...queue/workergroup.go:102:doWorkerHandle() [E] Queue "code_indexer" failed to handle batch of 2 items, backoff for a few seconds

Turning on debug logging, Gitea attempts to execute the command as follows:

2024/01/30 08:13:20 ...dules/git/command.go:290:Run() [D] git.Command.RunDir(D:\Gitea\data\repositories\minszw\smart-ns.git): "C:/Program Files/Git/bin/git.exe" -c protocol.version=2 -c credential.helper= -c filter.lfs.required= -c filter.lfs.smudge= -c filter.lfs.clean= ls-tree --full-tree -l 1fe04fdf997673b19f538b378fd53210d3ed5d09 -- .gitignore .osv-config.toml ".run/Command-line_ create organization.run.xml" ".run/Standalone (no browser).run.xml" [every file in the repository here]

In our case, this amounts to about 502000 character command line. This exceeds the limit of 32767 characters in Windows, and thus the command fails.

Maybe needs batch processing in this method:
