Change Details

As part of our migration to GitLab (from Differential and from Gerrit) we'll need to create users. Striker will need this so we can create a repo in GitLab and give a user owner permissions on that repo. While GitLab supports [[ https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/api/users.html#user-creation | API user creation ]] there is a problem with [[ https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/699 | creating ldap users in GitLab before their first login]]. There may be [[ https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/699#note_744343440|workarounds]] or other possibilities for a smooth workflow. **Acceptance criteria** [ ] Evaluation of user creation possibilities [ ] Workflow design
