What does LinkRepository do if the repo is already linked to a different pool?

Suppose GitLab thinks repo A is linked to pool P1, but in Gitaly A is linked to P2. Now GitLab calls LinkRepository(A, P1) to be sure it's linked. If some of A's objects are in P2, then now A has lost data.

I think at the very least, we should have an error in this case. I don't know if that is true for the current implementation; this issue is here for us to check that and if necessary fix it.

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
