Restructure documentation. Now the documentation has installation, administration, usage, development, contributing the 5 main parts (#23629)
- **Installation**: includes how to install Gitea and related other
tools, also includes upgrade Gitea
- **Administration**: includes how to configure Gitea, customize Gitea
and manage Gitea instance out of Gitea admin UI
- **Usage**: includes how to use Gitea's functionalities. A sub
documentation is about packages, in future we could also include CI/CD
and others.
- **Development**: includes how to integrate with Gitea's API, how to
develop new features within Gitea
- **Contributing**: includes how to contribute code to Gitea
repositories.

After this is merged, I think we can have a sub-documentation of `Usage`
part named `Actions` to describe how to use Gitea actions

# Protected tags
Protected tags allow control over who has permission to create or update Git tags. Each rule allows you to match either an individual tag name, or use an appropriate pattern to control multiple tags at once.
**Table of Contents**
{{< toc >}}
## Setting up protected tags
To protect a tag, you need to follow these steps:
1. Go to the repositorys **Settings** > **Tags** page.
1. Type a pattern to match a name. You can use a single name, a [glob pattern](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/gobwas/glob#Compile) or a regular expression.
1. Choose the allowed users and/or teams. If you leave these fields empty no one is allowed to create or modify this tag.
1. Select **Save** to save the configuration.
## Pattern protected tags
The pattern uses [glob](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/gobwas/glob#Compile) or regular expressions to match a tag name. For regular expressions you need to enclose the pattern in slashes.
Examples:
| Type | Pattern Protected Tag | Possible Matching Tags |
| ----- | ------------------------ | --------------------------------------- |
| Glob | `v*` | `v`, `v-1`, `version2` |
| Glob | `v[0-9]` | `v0`, `v1` up to `v9` |
| Glob | `*-release` | `2.1-release`, `final-release` |
| Glob | `gitea` | only `gitea` |
| Glob | `*gitea*` | `gitea`, `2.1-gitea`, `1_gitea-release` |
| Glob | `{v,rel}-*` | `v-`, `v-1`, `v-final`, `rel-`, `rel-x` |
| Glob | `*` | matches all possible tag names |
| Regex | `/\Av/` | `v`, `v-1`, `version2` |
| Regex | `/\Av[0-9]\z/` | `v0`, `v1` up to `v9` |
| Regex | `/\Av\d+\.\d+\.\d+\z/` | `v1.0.17`, `v2.1.0` |
| Regex | `/\Av\d+(\.\d+){0,2}\z/` | `v1`, `v2.1`, `v1.2.34` |
| Regex | `/-release\z/` | `2.1-release`, `final-release` |
| Regex | `/gitea/` | `gitea`, `2.1-gitea`, `1_gitea-release` |
| Regex | `/\Agitea\z/` | only `gitea` |
| Regex | `/^gitea$/` | only `gitea` |
| Regex | `/\A(v\|rel)-/` | `v-`, `v-1`, `v-final`, `rel-`, `rel-x` |
| Regex | `/.+/` | matches all possible tag names |
