repository is empty after update to 6.5

Created by: adrien59cadri

Hello

I have an issue that looks like #5101 https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq/issues/5101

I updated from 5.1 to 6.0 and to 6.5. I had all my repositories in non-global namespace.

At the end, everything went fine, except that when running gitlab:check task I get an output like this MyNamespace / MyRepo ... repository is empty. These projects can not be browsed from the web interface, although the repositories do exist on the filesystem.

Some projects of the same namespace are fine, also several projects of various namespaces seems to be affected. Most projects are fine, and I browse those on gitlab interface. The repositories are in the right folder with the same rights than the others. Another intersting thing is that for the same projects, the gitlab:check says that the namespace and sattelites are OK.

Do you have any idea to restore access to these projects from gitlab?

One solution I consider currently is to reimport those projects but I don't know if I could use the same project name (I wonder if it would confuse gitlab)

Thank you for your help

EDIT : workaround

For your information, If I do:

  1. Go on the web interface of Gitlab,
  2. go into one of this empty repository, Gitlab give me an option to create the repository (like after a fresh project creation).
  3. click on edit
  4. go in the setting tab
  5. change the default branch of the project and save
  6. change back the default branch and save

everything is back to normal
