Description

import from gogs/github will faill unless you set the in app.ini under [repository] the DEFAULT_BRANCH to master

to reproduce:

add a repository to a user (gitea/data/gitea-repositories/user/
go in gui to user settingss -> Reposistories -> choose addapt files to import reposistory

the branch button on the imported repository will give a error 404

now set the in app.ini under [repository] the DEFAULT_BRANCH = master, restart gittea and try to import another one
or remove the imported one.

the branch button will work as expected

Don't forget to push the button "Delete any repositories that are missing their Git files" before importing the same repository again.

Can you reproduce this on https://try.gitea.io ? And can you give an example repository?
