As group repository storage moves are processed, they transition through different states. Values
of `state` are:
- `initial`: The record has been created but the background job has not yet been scheduled.
- `initial`: The record has been created, but the background job has not yet been scheduled.
- `scheduled`: The background job has been scheduled.
- `started`: The group repositories are being copied to the destination storage.
- `replicated`: The group has been moved.
- `failed`: The group repositories failed to copy or the checksums did not match.
- `finished`: The group has been moved and the repositories on the source storage have been deleted.
- `cleanup failed`: The group has been moved but the repositories on the source storage could not be deleted.
- `failed`: The group repositories failed to copy, or the checksums did not match.
- `finished`: The group has been moved, and the repositories on the source storage have been deleted.
- `cleanup failed`: The group has been moved, but the repositories on the source storage could not be deleted.
To ensure data integrity, groups are put in a temporary read-only state for the
duration of the move. During this time, users receive a `The repository is temporarily
read-only. Please try again later.` message if they try to push new commits.
