Description

When you attempt to create a new repository setting by clicking the "New repository" button in the Repositories tab of the project settings, you may encounter a 404 error.

The error occurs when no SCM is enabled in Administration > Settings > Repositories > Enabled SCM, at RepositoriesController::build_new_repository_from_params.

  def build_new_repository_from_params
    scm = params[:repository_scm] || (Redmine::Scm::Base.all & Setting.enabled_scm).first
    unless @repository = Repository.factory(scm)
      render_404
      return
    end

With a 404 error, it is difficult for users to know how to resolve it. I think Redmine should output a more informative error message.

If there is no enabled SCM, how about show the message instead of the "New repository" link?
I think it would be even better if, in addition to this, it returns error_enabled_scm_not_exist instead of render_404.

Thank you for your suggestion. But I see a minor problem in the patch that you will see "The page you were trying to access doesn't exist or has been removed" even after applying the patch by directly accessing /projects/ecookbook/repositories/new. In order to avoid this, I think it is better to check if any SCM is enabled in a controller than a view like this. Also, the message in the original patch is obvious and a bit obtrusive for me.

The following is my suggestion.
