Hi there!
I’m recently upgraded to gitlab 14.2 and now I’m running into some strange issues.
While upgrading, I tried to migrate a single project from legacy storage to hashed storage. This failed consistently, so I just skipped the check and moved on.
Now I’m trying to delete the same project, but it always fails with a 500 server error. I investigated a bit and found the gitlab-rails/exceptions_json.log file. In it I found this:

It seems like Gitlab is not able to find the repository. I tried to delete the stored files manually, but Gitlab then prompted me to either create a new git project or delete the repo entirely (which failed again).
I would greatly appreciate if someone could tell me how to get rid of that project.
