Context for the current task

Rebuild TeamForge search indexes
You can rebuild your site's search index without stopping TeamForge.
Permit big file uploads
When many users store very large files on your site, you may sometimes notice a slowdown in your site's performance. You can reduce the impact of such a use pattern by telling TeamForge not to index files larger than a certain size.
Allow searching of archive files
By default, users can't search the content of archive files uploaded to TeamForge, such as zip, tar, or docx files. If your users need it, you can provide this ability.
