Description

Background

For a CI system (gitea, jenkins, k8s) I am creating K8s namespaces based on PRs of a repostory. In these namespaces the application is built and deployed and tested automatically. A user of the CI system should be able to access the PRs namespace for debugging or to change configurations. Such a user needs the appropriate permissions in a namespace in order to view or change something. Currently only the owner of a PR gets access to its namespace by querying the PR via API. We also have situations where a namespace is created for a specific branch (no PRs). But since there is no PR to get the user from, I would like to give repository collaborators with write access to the generated namespace.

But actually the API doesn't provide the needed information (or at least I couldn't find it). When querying GET /repos/{owner}/{repo}/collaborators the usual User model is returned. It contains the is_admin property, but it seems this is related to global Gitea administrators.

Proposal

Would it be possible to introduce a new Model Collaborator inheriting from User which contains a property permission which is either set to view, write or admin?

Currently only the endpoint GET /repos/{owner}/{repo}/collaborators is returning collaborators and would be the only one affected by that change.
