Group with non-latin name cannot be created
Created by: waitekk
Looks like GitLab fails at creating groups with names containing cyrillic (and probably non-latin) symbols.
Example:
Try to create a group with name Бла — failure, Path can't be blank
Enter Blah instead — voila.
Renaming group after it's creation to cyrillic analog when path is already set works just fine.
I've just upgraded 4.0 to 4.1.

wouldnt it be the most easy solution to push a small migration that just asks if you want to change all wiki names and then 'sed's out the bad characters? i mean its not that evil to not have special characters.

Sorry it took me month to answer back.
Tried to reproduce in the latest bitnami stack (5.3). Instead of
Path can't be blankgotName only letters, digits, spaces & '_' '-' '.' allowed.Before teams were introduced, I used groups instead. As of newer versions of gitlab, it is possible to unite people under different entities, but again you must use ANSI-compatible names (this bug applies to team names as well with the same error message). This is somewhat inappropriate, I think.
