helpers:

API helper: routers/api/v1/utils
modules/util

"move modules/util/paginate.go to modules/paginate/paginate.go"

@6543 commented on GitHub (Feb 3, 2021): helpers: * API helper: [routers/api/v1/utils](https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/tree/master/routers/api/v1/utils) * [modules/util](https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/tree/master/modules/util) "move `modules/util/paginate.go` to `modules/paginate/paginate.go`"

We are still adding new code to the util package. So I guess it's so far so good?

ps: IMO instead of keeping issues open, I think it's better to write some PRs to refactor ... if it's worth and it is necessary 😁

I feel utils is too vague for a package name, and it's unclear what's actually inside.

We should either use gitutil, webhookutil... or put those into respective modules or services
