Description

Deploy gitea with docker and mounted local storage. Do commit via WebUI and see an error.
Check logs and see an error, as workaround add volume to the docker - ${WORKINGDIR}/docker/gitea/gitea/conf/app.ini:/etc/gitea/app.ini --> This basically remap existing docker managed app.ini to the /etc/gitea/app.ini in Container.

Expectation:
Existing app.ini in container under /data/gitea/config/app.ini should be taken into account.

Gitea Version

1.16.8

It seems that the git hooks in your Gitea repositories are out of sync. Please re-generate these git hooks in admin panel

Normally you do not need the /etc/gitea/app.ini.
