You didn't show the part where you added the user, or show any of the
filesystem permissions. If you haven't already customized this user's
environment, I'd delete the user with `pw user del gitea-user`, and
then add the user back via the `adduser` utility. If you're still
having issues, paste the part where you added the user, and show the
permissions, and describe in more detail what you're trying to do.

Can it be because the home directory of the user wasn't created on the
moment of creation?

Yes. That's part of why I suggested using the adduser utility. It will
ensure the home directory is created with appropriate permissions, as
well as some other stuff you probably want.

Should I set up the permisions of directory?

If you use the adduser utility, like I suggested, it will set the
permissions correctly, and you don't have to worry about setting them
manually.

No, it's more you created it by hand and the directories were owned by
the root user. As u/r_notfound said, use the `adduser` command or use
the `pw` command which is more "scriptable". check the man pages for
details.
