Is Snippet a proper name?

IMO it is not a "snippet", it is for "git guide for users"

What name would you use here? Can it be just RemoteName?

It's also an unclear name ....

Repository Snippets reads like "some parts of the repository", and GitLab users have been familiar with its Code Snippets https://docs.gitlab.com/user/snippets/

Can you suggest a better name?

Here and above: we can remove this SnippetRemoteName from template data, and get its value directly from the templates that need it.

Since it is used in several places in the template, I think it makes sense to extract it into a variable, which is what I did.

I don't think the Def here is useful.

The value is always filled by Value when a user opens this page.

So I think we should remove the Def function.

The main reason for Def is being able to get the default value when user removes value on settings page.
It is used here: https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/35172/files#diff-b3b66aef8cc83304cd5cfc661233e6c1c1be656fbd6cd1e09b114348f224ff32R251

In current architecture func (value *Value[T]) Value(ctx context.Context) (v T) function uses a default value only if it is not present in the database. So null in db, nil in go values are valid ones, and therefore the default value won't be used, and as a result there won't be any remote name on the page in snippets.
