Support `GITLAB_EARLY_AUTH_CHECK` env variable to disable early auth check and disable for acc tests (!1455) · Merge requests · GitLab.org / GitLab Terraform Provider

Timo Furrer requested to merge early-auth-check-var into main Feb 18, 2023

This change set reduces unnecessary calls to /api/v4/user from the early auth check from ~2.5k to ~450 for an entire test suite run:

grep "/api/v4/user" -c ce-15.6.6-ce.0-acctest-before.jsonl 
449

See !1417 (closed) for prior work on this.
