Cannot create/import projects within a subgroup on Gitlab

[iamjohnnym]

Issue

Related to #7980 , I don't know if these two issues are the same root cause or separate.

Cannot import gitlab projects that contain a group/subgroup because webhook fails to use the correct repo path.

Replication

1. Create repo in gitlab under a group/sub-group
2. Go through the process of importing that project in jx, any project.

Expected Behavior

1. Imports into jx
2. Creates a MR on the jx-cluster that references the correct project path. (this works)
   eg: chore: import repository https://gitlab.com/org/services/react-test.git
3. jx spins up a boot job
4. jx creates webhook to repo
5. job completes
6. jx merges mr
7. ...

Actual Behavior

1. Imports into jx
2. Creates a MR on the jx-cluster that references the correct project path.
   eg: chore: import repository https://gitlab.com/org/services/react-test.git
3. jx spins up a boot job
4. Webhook fails:

WARNING: failed to update webhooks for Owner: org and Repository: react-test in git server: https://gitlab.com: failed to create webhook "http://hook-jx.subdomain.domain.com/hook" on repository 'org/react-test': Not Found

Source Config

I've even attempted to set the URL and httpCloneURL but they don't appear to do anything during this process.

It appears the source repository is being set appropriately though:

% kubectl get sr
NAME                          URL                                                        DESCRIPTION
org-python-http-test   https://gitlab.com/org/python-http-test             
org-react-test               https://gitlab.com/org/services/react-test
org-services-test          https://gitlab.com/org/services/test

Webhooks are now being created, so I think this issue can be closed?
Having said that, there are still some issues aroung importing projects (seems like in-repo scheduler does not get added to the repo, and the import times out waiting for the pr to get auto merged), but that's a different issue.

/close
closing this as nested gitlab repos are now working with jx
