GitLab

Summary: Getting a 422 (The change you wanted was rejected.) when transfering a project to other namespace after upgrade to 7.1

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a project in Gitlab 7.0 with the visibility internal
2. Upgrade to Gitlab 7.1
3. Try to transfer the project via adminarea to other namespace

Expected behavior: The project should be transferred to the other namespace as planned

Observed behavior: When trying to transfer the project to the new namespace, I recieve a 422 (see below)

If I create a new project in Gitalb 7.1 with visibility internal I can transfer it.

Relevant logs and/or screenshots:

• nginx logs have nothing special
• production/application/sattelites have nothing special

Output of checks:

Possible Fixes:

IfI change the visibility from internal to private and try to transfer again it works!
