Changes
- Gitea Sync (early preview): two-way sync with gitea.com or your self-hosted Gitea.
- Node.js 24.22.1: the security update in upstream Overleaf 6.3.2.
- Bug fixes found by our E2E testing system and Internal Horizon Issue Investigation.
Gitea Sync ships in 6.3.2 as an early preview for gray testing, and will be officially released in v6.4.0. Its configuration and behavior may still change before then. It is off by default. Please report any issues on GitHub.
Feature 01: Gitea Sync (Preview)
Many labs and small teams run their own Gitea, because it is light enough for a single small server. Gitea Sync works the same way as GitHub Sync and GitLab Sync: link your account, import a repository from the new project menu, or export a project to a new Gitea repository. Then push and pull from the editor, and merge through pull requests with the repository’s own merge style. Overleaf never bypasses your branch protection: when a pull request needs approvals or passing checks, it waits for you to merge it in Gitea. It works with gitea.com and with self-hosted Gitea 1.23 or later. SetGITEA_SYNC_ENABLED, GITEA_SYNC_CLIENT_ID, GITEA_SYNC_CLIENT_SECRET and GITEA_TOKEN_CIPHER_PASSWORD, plus GITEA_SYNC_URL for a self-hosted instance.
See Gitea Synchronisation for the full setup instructions.
Bug fixes
- Git sync: when a file deleted on GitHub, GitLab or Gitea cannot be deleted in Overleaf, the sync now fails and can be retried, instead of reporting success and leaving the file behind. A
git pushthat deletes a file fails the same way. - Git bridge: a document created in the editor with a non-text extension (such as
.csv) stays editable when agit pushchanges it. - Track changes: signed-out editors of a link-shared project can delete comment threads, but can no longer resolve or reopen them, and reviewers can delete their own replies.
- Template gallery: publishing a template requires access to the project.
- Learn: cached help pages stay available when the wiki cannot be reached.
Upgrade
- From 6.3.1 or 6.3.0: no migration is needed. Pull the new image and restart.
- From 6.2.x or earlier with Zotero or Mendeley in use: run the Zotero / Mendeley migration from 6.3.0 first.
- Gitea Sync is off by default and only needs new environment variables.
