TMA-GITLAB-1.3.7
Ensure two administrators are set for each repository
Description
Ensure every repository has two users with administrative permissions. Repository administrators have the highest permissions to said repository. These include the ability to add/remove collaborators, change branch protection policy, and convert to a publicly-accessible repository. Due to the liberal access granted to a repository administrator, it is highly recommended that only two contributors occupy this role.
How it is checked
Audit method: Manual review

For every group, verify there are two administrators by performing the following: - On the left sidebar, at the bottom, select Admin Area. - Select Overview > Users. - List users selecting the Admin tab. - Verify that there are only 2 members with Admin permission.
How it is fixed
