Description

I'm trying to add new oauth google provider via command line to my gitea installation.
But I'm getting the following error:

$ gitea admin auth add-oauth --name external-google --provider google --key ${GOOGLE_KEY_PROVIDER} --secret ${GOOGLE_SECRET_PROVIDER}
Command error: auth source is not activated

When trying to add a new oauth provider from github this command works correctly.

Gitea Version

gitea/gitea:1.22.1-rootless

Can you reproduce the bug on the Gitea demo site?

No

However, during the analysis, I reproduced the error by running gitea in a docker container.

It seems that the provider name is gplus, Google is display name.

Although it's not a bug, but it's better to have a list of all supported oauth provider in the command line.
