* Add environment-to-app.ini routine
* Call environment-to-ini in docker setup scripts
* Automatically convert section vars to lower case to match documentation
* Remove git patch instructions
* Add env variable documentation to Install Docker
## Managing Deployments With Environment Variables
In addition to the environment variables above, any settings in `app.ini` can be set or overridden with an environment variable of the form: `GITEA__SECTION_NAME__KEY_NAME`. These settings are applied each time the docker container starts. Full information [here](https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/tree/master/contrib/environment-to-ini).
These environment variables can be passed to the docker container in `docker-compose.yml`. The following example will enable an smtp mail server if the required env variables `GITEA__mailer__FROM`, `GITEA__mailer__HOST`, `GITEA__mailer__PASSWD` are set on the host or in a `.env` file in the same directory as `docker-compose.yml`:
```bash
...
services:
server:
environment:
- GITEA__mailer__ENABLED=true
- GITEA__mailer__FROM=${GITEA__mailer__FROM:?GITEA__mailer__FROM not set}
- GITEA__mailer__MAILER_TYPE=smtp
- GITEA__mailer__HOST=${GITEA__mailer__HOST:?GITEA__mailer__HOST not set}
- GITEA__mailer__PASSWD="""${GITEA__mailer__PASSWD:?GITEA__mailer__PASSWD not set}"""
```
To set required TOKEN and SECRET values, consider using gitea's built-in [generate utility functions](https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/command-line/#generate).
# SSH Container Passthrough (not tested)
This should be possible by forcing `authorized_keys` generation via `gitea admin regenerate keys`.

## SSH Container Passthrough
Since SSH is running inside the container, SSH needs to be passed through from the host to the container if SSH support is desired. One option would be to run the container SSH on a non-standard port (or moving the host port to a non-standard port). Another option which might be more straightforward is to forward SSH connections from the host to the container. This setup is explained in the following.
