# Configuration Cheat Sheet
This is a cheat sheet for the Gitea configuration file. It is helpful for more fully understanding how it powers Gitea.
Before getting started, make sure you know that any change to the configuration should be made in `custom/conf/app.ini` or any corresponding location.
All default settings can be found in [app.ini.sample](https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/blob/master/custom/conf/app.ini.sample) (replace master in URL with name of tag for released versions). If you see anything which looks like `%(X)s`, it is a feature powered by [ini](https://github.com/go-ini/ini/#recursive-values) for reading values recursively.
Any configuration option that is marked by :exclamation: means that you should keep the default value unless you fully understand what you are doing.
Values containing `#` or `;` must be quoted using `` ` `` or `"""`.
**Note** that you have to restart Gitea for changes to take effect.
## Overall (`DEFAULT`)
- `APP_NAME`: Application name, change to whatever you want.
- `RUN_USER`: The user to run Gitea as, we recommend it be `git`; however, change this to whatever your username is if you run Gitea on your personal computer. Gitea may crash if this value is not set properly.
- `RUN_MODE`: For performance and other purposes, change this to `prod` when deployed to a production environment. The installation process will set this to `prod` automatically.
## Repository (`repository`)
- `ROOT`: Root path for storing all users' repository data. It must be an absolute path. The default is `~/<username>/gitea-repositories`.
- `SCRIPT_TYPE`: The script type your server supports, usually this is `bash`, but some customers report that they only have `sh`.
- `ANSI_CHARSET`: The default charset for an unrecognized charset.
- `FORCE_PRIVATE`: Force every new repository to be private.
- `MAX_CREATION_LIMIT`: Global maximum creation limit of repositories per user, `-1` means no limit.
- `PULL_REQUEST_QUEUE_LENGTH`:exclamation:: Length of pull request patch test queue, make it as large as possible.
- `MIRROR_QUEUE_LENGTH`: Patch test queue length, increase if pull request patch testing starts hanging. Defaults to 1000.
- `PREFERRED_LICENSES`: Preferred Licenses to place at the top of the List. Name must match file name in conf/license or custom/conf/license. Defaults to 'Apache License 2.0,MIT License'
- `DISABLE_HTTP_GIT`: Disable ability to interact with repositories by HTTP protocol. Defaults to false
- `USE_COMPAT_SSH_URI`: Force ssh:// clone url instead of scp-style uri when default SSH port is used. Defaults to false.
## UI (`ui`)
- `EXPLORE_PAGING_NUM`: Number of repositories that are shown in one explore page.
- `ISSUE_PAGING_NUM`: Number of issues that are shown in one page (for all pages that list issues).
- `FEED_MAX_COMMIT_NUM`: Number of maximum commits shown in one activity feed.
### UI - Admin (`ui.admin`)
