Rename Group Doesn't Rename Namespace [Solved]

Howdy!

Using the gitlab.com website, I created a group. I had assumed the groups would be unique within my user, and though I was able to create the group with no problem, I decided it probably had too generic of a name to be used in the apparently global group namespace. I renamed the group to something longer and more specific.

Now when I go to create a new project in that group, using the green “New Project” button from the group’s Overview -> Details page, GitLab doesn’t suggest

https://gitlab.com/newgroupname/project

as the path to the project, but rather

https://gitlab.com/oldgroupname/project

Have I don’t something wrong, I have I misunderstood something, or is this possible a gitlab.com bug?

Thanks,

Additionally:

The new group name cannot be selected from the dropdown on the project URL.

The path can be changed from the “Path, transfer, remove” section of the group’s settings page.
