- The "Git hooks of this repository seem to be broken" error is currently shown if for whatever reason the database doesn't agree with Git on what the commitID for a branch is. This can happen for a variety of reasons, but usually is just a transient error.
- Saying that the git hooks of the repository "looks broken" is very likely to be correct in some contexts, but I have not yet seen that case and in those cases; other stuff would also be broken and would indicate that Forgejo is not functioning correctly.
- Replace this warning with a more helpful message that contains a easy fix that works in the cases where it was a transient error - push another commit (so the git hooks get run again). If the warning persists contact the instance admins and they will figure out the git hooks are broken or contact Forgejo about this problem.
- Moreover removes a link to Gitea documentation.
- A potential improvement (if people will run into this problem, and we then know what they ran into), we could show a specific warning to instance admins that contains troubleshooting steps or point to our own documentation.
