Repository skeleton exist for project but not recognized as git repositories
During the execution of gitlab-com/gl-infra/production#3445 (closed), we found a couple of projects (so far, IDs are 13430678 and 13535743) that returned 500 errors for any operations done on them. Gitaly logs indicate that their directories are not git repositories, this has been confirmed manually. Below are the directory trees:
