The Forgejo admin should carefully read the required manual actions before upgrading. A point release (e.g. v1.21.1-0 or v1.21.2-0) does not require manual actions but others might (e.g. v1.20, v1.21).
## 1.21.0-0 (DRAFT)

Note that the modifications related to CSS, templates or assets (images, fonts, etc.) are not documented here.
Although they can be extracted and modified, Forgejo does not provide any guarantee that such changes
will be portable from one version to another (even a patch version).
- [Restrict certificate type for builtin SSH server](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/pulls/1172). This is a breaking change for setups where the builtin SSH server is being used and for some reason host certificates were being used for authentication.
- [Some Forgejo CLI options have changed](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/commit/d0dbe52e76f3038777c3b50066e3636105387ca3) and scripts may need to be updated. For instance `--verbose` is no longer a global option and is implemented on a per sub-command basis. Check `forgejo --help` or `forgejo docs` for more information.
- [Remove "CHARSET" config option for MySQL and always use "utf8mb4"](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/commit/ce46834b938eb687152a680669ada95a26304178). It has been a requirement for years and specifying anything else is likely to cause issues.
- [Remove "CHARSET" config option for MySQL and always use "utf8mb4"](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/commit/ce46834b938eb687152a680669ada95a26304178). It has been a requirement for years and specifying anything else is likely to cause issues. Existing MySQL databases still using `utf8` can be converted using the CLI: `forgejo doctor convert`.
- [Restrict certificate type for builtin SSH server](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/pulls/1172). This is a breaking change for setups where the builtin SSH server is being used and for some reason host certificates were being used for authentication.
- [Set SSH_AUTHORIZED_KEYS_BACKUP to false by default](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/commit/469d89b95a1ce18dd34808a95c7230375e828e24). There is no automatic cleanup of these backups and can end up using a significant amount of disk space over time.
(More items to be added here)
- [The minimum RSA keylength is now 3072 instead of 2048](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/commit/c533991519816313dfaa0ddcec183756a97b9348).
- **Forgejo Actions:**
It is now enabled by default but should still be considered alpha stage and subject to unannounced breaking changes.
- The API can now be used to manage secrets for [users](https://code.forgejo.org/api/swagger/#/user/updateUserSecret), [organizations](https://code.forgejo.org/api/swagger/#/organization/orgListActionsSecrets) and [repositories](https://code.forgejo.org/api/swagger/#/repository/updateRepoSecret).
- [Registration tokens can register multiple runners](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/commit/9b698362a333de2c388499f1a64d39545b0263bd) instead of a single one. Read more [about runner registration](https://forgejo.org/docs/v1.21/admin/actions/#registration).
- [Add](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/commit/35a653d7edbe0d693649604b8309bfc578dd988b) support for [variables in addition to secrets](https://forgejo.org/docs/v1.21/user/actions/#variables).
- [Add](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/commit/0d55f64e6cd3de2e1e5c0ee795605823efb14231) support for [recurring actions similar to cron jobs](https://forgejo.org/docs/v1.21/user/actions/#onschedule).
- [Add](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/commit/19872063a3c14256a1d89b2a104d63e7538a3a28) the possibility to [disable workflows from the user interface](https://forgejo.org/docs/v1.21/user/actions/#the-list-of-tasks-in-a-repository).
- [Add](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/commit/460a2b0edffe71d9e64633beaa1071fcf4a33369) automatic [cleanup of artificats](https://forgejo.org/docs/v1.21/user/actions/#artifacts).
- [Add](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/commit/44781f9f5c4ede618660d8cfe42437f0e8dc22a0) automatic cancelation [of jobs when pushing new commits](https://forgejo.org/docs/v1.21/user/actions/#auto-cancelation-of-workflows) to a PR.
- [Add](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/commit/f3d293d2bbe0b2eab047bdd403046069cffbc0c4) support for [uploading multiple artificats](https://forgejo.org/docs/v1.21/user/actions/#artifacts).
- [Add](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/commit/48e5a74f215d78813a816c57fc5a85a909a003d5) support for the [`pull_request_target` event](https://forgejo.org/docs/v1.21/user/actions/#onpull_request_target) which has access to secrets because it runs using the workflows from the base branch instead of the pull request.
- [Add](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/commit/8228751c55d6a4263f0fec2932ca16181c09c97d) support for reading labels from the runner [instead of specifying them during registration](https://forgejo.org/docs/v1.21/admin/actions/#registration).
