Disable Action unit by default when mirroring a repo?

[yp05327]

Feature Description

For a mirror, the workflows are designed for the original repo, so something like secrets would not work or some unexpected things may happen? e.g. CD run twice when there's a runner with same label and no secret checks or something which would block the CD? ( original and mirror)

I think it already can be disabled from the repository setting.

Changed the title to By default

Similar for templates. Would be nice to disable it by default so my the devs can enable it if they added configuration but don’t need to think about disabling it when it is not used.

maybe we can add an option when create a mirror repo

[wienans]

For creating a repo from template we already have many options, one checkbox more shouldn’t be a huge disruption in UX I think.

and it would be nice if the workflows itself are disabled after creating it not actions tab from the repo settings.

I've already found a place(and other related code) to modify the repo unit. But I'm not sure about which unit should be included for the mirror and template repos.
Should only the action unit be removed or other units(wiki, project, etc) should be removed too? I think currently we do not support other units for both the template or mirror repos (although there is a PR that tried to mirror other staff IIRC)

Or should we turn DefaultTemplateRepoUnits and DefaultMirrorRepoUnits into settings in app.ini?

I think this is based on the mirror options. If you removed some of them, but user select one of them, then bugs may come.
