Add a hint for archived projects
Description
GitLab can archive projects and display:
- active
- archived, and
- both
project kinds.
Unfortunately, it's not possible to see if a group contains archived projects.
Use Case:
We do project work based on customer contracts. When a contract has ended we would like to archive a delivered project and clean up our structures (groups, subgroups) in GitLab. But this does not mean that a closed/archived project should behave like a deleted project. It's still there in read-only mode. Thus, developers should still be able to find them more intuitively.
Proposal
- Add a hint to show that a group contains hidden list items (archived projects)
- If both project kinds are displayed, mark archived projects differently. E.g. in gray color or with an archived icon.
