[WIP] Added custom css file. Fixes #688

[pgaskin]

I have added a line to the gitea css file which imports custom.css. It is blank by default (so there are not any 404s), but because of #782, it can be overridden, therefore allowing custom css which can survive updates.

[tboerger]

This won't work. The css file gets generated from the less file, and I'm pretty sure that less will embed the imported css file.

[pgaskin]

OK. I think I know how to fix that. Sorry about not testing it completely.

[pgaskin]

@tboerger Fixed. Proof:

[tboerger]

Maybe it's even better to provide a config variable, and maybe this can even be an array to include multiple files. Than you can even add files from any cdn by this option.

[pgaskin]

@tboerger Another way is to add CSS imports to the custom CSS file.

[tboerger]

But this still loads an additional css file even for everybody who doesn't customize gitea

[pgaskin]

@tboerger I can add a config option to enable and disable the CSS file. What section should it go in?

[tboerger]

I would prefer an option for a list of files that gets added instead of enabling or disabling the custom css file

[pgaskin]

@tboerger OK, what should the option be called, and what section should it go in?

Any update?

[pgaskin]

Yes, but I will not be able to do it in time for the next version.

OK. So let's move this to v1.2

[lunny]

Is this needed since we can override the public folder?

[pgaskin]

@lunny, yes because if we override the CSS file, it could get out of date and break the UI after an upgrade.

[pgaskin]

@tboerger @strk @lunny How should this work? Should there be a list of custom css files in the config, custom css directly in the config, a file for custom css, or something else?

[lunny]

@geek1011 I have no idea.

[pgaskin]

I will do this later from scratch. Closing this for now.
