Originally created by @lunny on GitHub (Nov 2, 2019).

A new doctor subcommand could check gitea's running status, it could includes:

Repositories file system permissions. It could read app.ini to get running user and check if all the repositories could be read/write by the user.
Repositories Hooks script address. It could check if all the repositories hooks script address is current binary's address.

Welcome to add more.

Repositories under gitea-repositories that are missing from the database, and the other way around.
authorized_keys script address.
Assets that are found in data/attachment but are not linked in gitea, and the other way around.
Automatically detect all running instances.
Search for app.ini; try to figure out its configuration.

~~It happen many times that users don't find where are some folder/path used by gitea (like the custom folder). Maybe we could dump those information when running doctor command ?~~
Edit: Nevermind those are visible in the admin ui.

@sapk I'm sure it won't hurt, anyway.

@sapk #10064 😄

As you've mentioned, the configuration tab in settings is also very useful because oftentimes the users do have Gitea running and they only need to e.g. customize it.
