### Labels
To add a custom label set, add a file that follows the [label format](https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/blob/main/options/label/Default) to `$GITEA_CUSTOM/options/label`
Starting with Gitea 1.19, you can add a file that follows the [YAML label format](https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/blob/main/options/label/Advanced.yaml) to `$GITEA_CUSTOM/options/label`:
```yaml
labels:
- name: "foo/bar" # name of the label that will appear in the dropdown
exclusive: true # whether to use the exclusive namespace for scoped labels. scoped delimiter is /
color: aabbcc # hex colour coding
description: Some label # long description of label intent
```
The [legacy file format](https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/blob/main/options/label/Default) can still be used following the format below, however we strongly recommend using the newer YAML format instead.
`#hex-color label name ; label description`
For more information, see the [labels documentation]({{< relref "doc/usage/labels.en-us.md" >}}).
### Licenses
To add a custom license, add a file with the license text to `$GITEA_CUSTOM/options/license`
