Cannot move new projects to global namespace

Created by: felixhummel

Hi,

I just did a fresh install of Gitlab 4.0 stable.

Steps taken:

create new project
Admin area > Projects > Edit
Select Namespace /

Expected: It moves. ;)

Actual: Error. Trace:

Project::TransferError (Project test cannot be moved from /home/git/repositories/felixhummel/test.git to /home/git/repositories/test.git):
  app/roles/namespaced_project.rb:27:in `rescue in transfer'
  app/roles/namespaced_project.rb:3:in `transfer'
  app/contexts/project_update_context.rb:11:in `execute'
  app/controllers/admin/projects_controller.rb:28:in `update'

Problem: Gitlab tries to move a git repository that does not exist yet. After pushing something (and thus creating the repo), moving works.

Thanks for this great tool!

Cheers, Felix
