Gitea has switched to version 28 numbering; its feed has caught only the dev tags.

git-forgeci-actionsself-hostedaccess-controlversioning
◆Current state
Gitea's feed captures release candidates and development tags, not final releases. The newest entry is a v29.0.0-dev tag on September 29 that adds the changelog for 28.0.0, which means Gitea has switched from 1.x numbering to major versions. Before that the visible entries were 1.26.0-rc0 in April, with Actions concurrency and a Terraform state registry, and 1.27.0-rc0 in June, with owner-level and global workflows and access-control fixes.
◆Where it's heading
Actions has been the main area of change across the 1.26 and 1.27 candidates, with reusable and scoped workflows, alongside repeated access-control fixes. The move to 28.0.0 numbering marks a new release scheme, but the feed has not captured its releases.
◆Prediction
The feed is likely to keep showing dev tags rather than finals; the next visible entry may be a v29 release candidate.

    Owner-level and global workflows, plus five access-control fixes

    Reusable workflow support improves in a way marked breaking, and workflows gain owner-level and global scoping. The security batch is the interesting half: fork-PR cross-repo access via a collaborative owner, OAuth introspection scope, private org membership exposed through public_members, and path traversal in repository restore.

    Actions concurrency syntax, Terraform state registry, maintenance mode

    Adds concurrency control to Actions, a Terraform state registry alongside the existing package registries, an instance-wide info banner with maintenance mode, and OpenAPI spec rendering. The breaking changes are API-shaped — corrected swagger annotations and a removed registration-token endpoint.
