Now, give a name for your environment and choose a Color label for it. Then, you will get two Deployment modes such as:

  • Manual: This deployment mode is required for a production environment where every deployment should be placed manually.
  • Automatic: Automatic deployment is needed for staging and development environments because staging and development environments don't require in-person involvement.

Now, select the type of branch you have created in Gitea and hit the “Save” button.
