Renaming Repository Fails with 500 Error in 7.1

Created by: demisx

Hi, I've just tried to rename one of our repositories via Settings -> Dangerous Settings -> Rename repository option, but after clicking the orange button Rename I've got a 500 Error page. Navigating back to Settings page showed the new name, however the git clone didn't work since /home/git/repositories/[namespace]/[project-name]on the server still showed the old repo name. I had to manually rename it via terminal to make git clone work with the new repo name.

Here is the environment:

$ bundle exec rake gitlab:env:info RAILS_ENV=production
