No, sadly this does not work, I just tested this,

I have two different groups here

- https://invent.kde.org/sysadmin/test/test1
- https://invent.kde.org/sysadmin/test/test2

test1 have a repo called foo under it, which is shared with the test2
group. When someone visits test2, they are not offered the list of the
shared repositories but they are instead offered the empty page. One
have to click on Shared repositories tab to actually see the list.

https://invent.kde.org/groups/sysadmin/test/test2/-/shared

This defeats the purpose of the creating subgroups (offering easy
reachability).
