Compared to GitHub Actions
Even though Gitea Actions is designed to be compatible with GitHub Actions, there are some differences between them.
Additional features
Absolute action URLs
Gitea Actions supports defining actions via absolute URL, which means that you can use actions from any git repository.
Like uses: https://github.com/actions/checkout@v3 or uses: http://your_gitea.com/owner/repo@branch.
Actions written in Go
Gitea Actions supports writing actions in Go. See Creating Go Actions.
Unsupported workflows syntax
concurrency
It's used to run a single job at a time. See Using concurrency.
It's ignored by Gitea Actions now.
run-name
The name for workflow runs generated from the workflow. See Workflow syntax for GitHub Actions.

permissions and jobs.<job_id>.permissions
See Workflow syntax for GitHub Actions.

jobs.<job_id>.timeout-minutes

jobs.<job_id>.continue-on-error
See Workflow syntax for GitHub Actions.

jobs.<job_id>.environment

Complex runs-on
See Workflow syntax for GitHub Actions.
Gitea Actions only supports runs-on: xyz or runs-on: [xyz] now.
workflow_dispatch
See Workflow syntax for GitHub Actions.
It's ignored by Gitea Actions now.
hashFiles expression
See Expressions
Gitea Actions doesn't support it now, if you use it, the result will always be empty string.
As a workaround, you can use go-hashfiles instead.
Missing features
Problem Matchers
Problem Matchers are a way to scan the output of actions for a specified regex pattern and surface that information prominently in the UI. See Problem matchers.
It's ignored by Gitea Actions now.
Create an error annotation
See Creating an annotation for an error
It's ignored by Gitea Actions now.
Missing UI features
Pre and Post steps
Pre and Post steps don't have their own section in the job log user interface.
Different behavior
Downloading actions
Previously (Pre 1.21.0), [actions].DEFAULT_ACTIONS_URL defaulted to https://gitea.com.
We have since restricted this option to only allow two values (github and self).
When set to github, the new default, Gitea will download non-fully-qualified actions from https://github.com.
For example, if you use uses: actions/checkout@v3, it will download the checkout repository from https://github.com/actions/checkout.git.
If you want to download an action from another git hoster, you can use an absolute URL, e.g. uses: https://gitea.com/actions/checkout@v3.
If your Gitea instance is in an intranet or a restricted area, you can set the URL to self to only download actions from your own instance by default.
Of course, you can still use absolute URLs in workflows.
More details about the [actions].DEFAULT_ACTIONS_URL configuration can be found in the Configuration Cheat Sheet。
Context availability
Context availability is not checked, so you can use the env context on more places. See Context availability.
