Description

A repository was migrated from a local path (New Migration -> Migrate: /git/my-bare-repo). After the migration had been completed, there were no possibility to change the following settings of the repository: "Settings" -> "Repository" -> "Mirror Setting" -> "Mirror Interval" (default value 8h is too long).

After pressing the button "Update Settings", the following comment appeared: "The provided url is invalid. Only http(s):// or git:// locations can be mirrored from." The value of the box "Clone From URL" was not changed.

Update: the value "Mirror Interval" described above could be changed in GUI, but the new value was not displayed until the page is fully refreshed.

So there is a problem that upstream URL is unnecessarily validated even if it was not modified.

@bpycinski How did you change the "Mirror Interval" from the GUI? I have the same problem, but there's nowhere I can see to change it.

I am running currently version 1.15.0, but I think it has not changed. Open your repository, in the upper right corner there is a "Settings" with an icon of a wrench, and somewhere in the middle of the page there is "Mirror Settings". If you want to change this setting globally, probably you need to adjust the config file.

You can only add mirrors, not edit pre-existing ones.
