CLI segmentation fault when using gitea admin user create

[emmanuel-benoit]

Description

Running gitea --config /path/to/config.ini --work-path /path/to/workdir admin user create causes a segmentation violation. No error occurs if the create is removed, or replaced with e.g. list. The problem remains if the usual create arguments (--username / --email / --password) are present.

Here is the full error:

panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference
[signal SIGSEGV: segmentation violation code=0x1 addr=0x18 pc=0x500c5a]

goroutine 1 [running]:
