Fork to Group
It's currently only possible to create a fork under the namespace of the current user. If you like to create a fork of a repository within a group, you will need to fork to your user and than transfer it to the desired group/namespace. Forking into a group is interesting for companys having code ownership where projects do build theire stuff on common code repositorys.
GitHub allows to create a fork directly under an organization (Forking friendly). This feature whould also be nice to have in GitLab.
UI entry could be:
- Additional dropdown after hiting the Fork repository button, holding target group and repository name.
- Additional point under Create project (/projects/new): Fork existing repository with dropdown selector for selecting source repository.
