When creating a project from our own template project, not all settings are carried over (correctly). We are on Gitlab 18.3.1 self managed, premium (omnibus docker container). I have found these settings to be problematic:

• Settings -> CI/CD -> Keep artifacts from most recent successful jobs (disabled in our template, enabled in all our projects created from that template)
• Settings -> General -> Visibility, project features, permissions -> Package registry (Disabled in template, enabled in copies, does not show in the UI, only in the API)
• Settings -> Merge Requests -> Enable merged results pipelines (enabled in our template, disabled in copies)
