This is useful for automation and for allowing users to create repositories without having to go through the web interface. This feature is disabled by default. 51 52 ## Enabling Push To Create 53 54 In the `app.ini` file, set `ENABLE_PUSH_CREATE_USER` to `true` and `ENABLE_PUSH_CREATE_ORG` to `true` if you want to allow users to create repositories in their own user account and in organizations they are a member of respectively. Restart Gitea for the changes to take effect. You can read more about these two options in the [Configuration Cheat Sheet](administration/config-cheat-sheet.md#repository-repository). 55 56 ## Using Push To Create 57 58 Assuming you have a git repository in the current directory, you can push to a repository that does not exist yet in Gitea by running the following command: 59 60 ```shell 61 # Add the remote you want to push to 62 git remote add origin git@{domain}:{username}/{repo name that does not exist yet}.git 63 64 # push to the remote 65 git push -u origin main 66 ``` 67 68 This assumes you are using an SSH remote, but you can also use HTTPS remotes as well. 69 70 Push-to-create will default to the visibility defined by `DEFAULT_PUSH_CREATE_PRIVATE` in `app.ini`.
