To display a Markdown file in your Gitea user or organization profile page, create a repository named `.profile` and add a new file named `README.md` to it.
Gitea will automatically display the contents of the file on your profile, in a new "Overview" above your repositories.

Making the `.profile` repository private will hide the Profile README.
