Direct disk access is done through Gitaly now, so the legacy path was
deprecated. This path was used in Gitlab::Shell however. This required
the refactoring in this commit.
Added is the removal of direct path access on the project model, as that
lookup wasn't needed anymore is most cases.
Closes https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitaly/issues/1111
Prior to this change, this method was called add_namespace, which broke
the CRUD convention and made it harder to grep for what I was looking
for. Given the change was a find and replace kind of fix, this was
changed without opening an issue and on another feature branch.
If more dynamic calls are made to add_namespace, these could've been
missed which might lead to incorrect bahaviour. However, going through
the commit log it seems thats not the case.
If the source import directory were different from the destination directory,
GitLab would first create a blank repository and then erroneously move the
original one into a subdirectory. Adding an import type prevents this the project
from being initialized in the first place. It was accidentally removed in
1f917cbd49.
Closes#40765
