Review upstream basic auth bug fix #208

Description

@pedrogaudencio

Problem

Gitea fixed a basic auth bug in v1.26.2.

Basic auth can be used by Git clients and API consumers. If Forkana has the same issue, Git-over-HTTP or API authentication behavior may be incorrect or unsafe.

Upstream fix:

Solution

Review the upstream fix and determine whether Forkana is affected.

Address the following:

  • Check whether Forkana uses the affected basic auth code path.
  • Compare Forkana’s auth handling with the upstream patch.
  • Backport the fix if applicable.
  • Test Git-over-HTTP and API basic auth behavior.
  • Confirm invalid credentials are rejected and valid credentials still work.
