Problem to solve

Large upstream repository mirrors sometime fail the repository check due to various reasons. The problems cannot really be fixed but instead result in a weekly mail to the GitLab admins. For example the Libreoffice core repository contains commits where a whitespace between the name and mail address is missing:

https://github.com/LibreOffice/core/commit/1c239d78bc47f52b5d1341644cccb9835181be3d

Proposal

Allow admins to whitelist projects, so that failures are ignored for these project, but other project failures can be prevented.
