Project templates in Gitlab upon creation

What is the cleanest way to create a project in a self hosted gitlab with predefined (dynamically generated) files?

Concretely, I want to create a git repo on gitlab that upon creation contains all the files of a basic iOS project already. I just have to clone it and just start developing, instead of creating the project locally and then push it up to Gitlab.

Anyone?

I was looking into the gitlab-shell and the creation hook in gitlab-project: https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlab-shell/blob/master/lib/gitlab_projects.rb

Am I about to embark on a world of pain following this method? Is there something already out there that makes it easy to hook up at the application level?

have you found any solution to this?

It's almost builtin gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/48043

Otherwise create a python or your fav scripting language script that automates the local stuff by using the gitlab api? (or put it in a container)
