Import url imports are not allowed from that URL
### Summary
Importing projects **from** Gitlab v7.2.1 using the "Repo by URL" feature using v9.1.4 is failing with "Import url imports are not allowed from that URL" error. This function was previously working in 8.1.x but now fails after an upgrade.
### Steps to reproduce
1. Go to group
1. Go to New Project
1. Select Import project from > (git) Repo by URL
1. Enter the HTTP URL and your credentials to access another v7.2.1 Gitlab repository
1. Select Create Project
### What is the current *bug* behavior?
An error shows "Import url imports are not allowed from that URL", "Unable to save project. Error: Import url imports are not allowed from that URL"
### What is the expected *correct* behavior?
Import should complete and page should refresh with new imported repository

### Possible fixes
Import from the same v7.2.1 GitLab Was working in v8.1.x, but we upgraded and now the import is broken.
