Stop packaging node_modules in release tarballs (#15273 )

- Don't package node_modules in tarballs, they are not cross-platform
  anymore and npm cache should not be messed with directly. Instead,
  require an internet connection to rebuild the UI, which is not necessary
  in the general use case because prebuilt UI files are shipped in the
  public directory.
- Simplify the fomantic build and make the target phony. We don't need
  anything more for something that is rarely ran.
- Use regular tar again to build tarballs and add variable for excludes
- Disable annoying npm update notifications

Gitea - Git with a cup of tea

View the chinese version of this document

Purpose

The goal of this project is to make the easiest, fastest, and most painless way of setting up a self-hosted Git service. Using Go, this can be done with an independent binary distribution across all platforms which Go supports, including Linux, macOS, and Windows on x86, amd64, ARM and PowerPC architectures. Want to try it before doing anything else? Do it with the online demo! This project has been forked from Gogs since 2016.11 but changed a lot.

Building

From the root of the source tree, run:

TAGS="bindata" make build

or if sqlite support is required:

TAGS="bindata sqlite sqlite_unlock_notify" make build

The build target is split into two sub-targets:

make backend which requires Go 1.13 or greater.
make frontend which requires Node.js 12.17 or greater and Internet connectivity to download npm dependencies.

When building from the official source tarballs which include pre-built frontend files, the frontend target will not be triggered, making it possible to build without Node.js and Internet connectivity.

Parallelism (make -j <num>) is not supported.
