Most default projects features ignored in gitlab.rb

Summary

Following options in gitlab.rb seem to be ignored:

  • gitlab_default_projects_features_issues
  • gitlab_default_projects_features_merge_requests
  • gitlab_default_projects_features_wiki
  • gitlab_default_projects_features_snippets
  • gitlab_default_projects_features_builds

On the other hand gitlab_default_projects_features_container_registry works fine. The only difference is that this one is a checkobx (boolean) in settings, but not working ones are combos with 3 possible values.

Steps to reproduce

With GitLab Omnibus version:

  • In file /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb find line: # gitlab_rails['gitlab_default_projects_features_wiki'] = true
  • Change this line to: gitlab_rails['gitlab_default_projects_features_wiki'] = false
  • Run sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure
  • Log in to GitLab as user that can create project
  • Create a project in GitLab (both private and public yield the same result)

Expected behavior

Newly created project should have wiki disabled.

Actual behavior

Wiki is enabled in project (as "Only team members").

Possible fixes

The problem may occur because these options were booleans in the past, but now have more possible values. According to project_feature.rb current values are DISABLED = 0, PRIVATE = 10, ENABLED = 20. I don't know how to write properly these values in gitlab.rb (for example numeric values didn't work for me).
