Originally created by @MTecknology on GitHub (Jul 30, 2017).

At the moment, it seems like gitea gets a little bit confused when trying to find configuration data. Sometimes it'll look for a file at ${binpath}/${foo} (/usr/bin/gitea/custom/...) and other times it'll try ${pwd}/${foo}.

It would be ideal if we could have a build-time (and run-time) argument to configure a base path. This variable would make it very easy to handle a wide variety of deployments and would provide a fair amount of consistency for locating files.

Something like this would probably make #2228 a moot (but still valid) issue.

If that fixes it, then documentation will definitely be needed.

It fixes that all files are written to custom_directory etc it won't write to pwd if customdir is specified
