Description

When I try to delete a user, if that user is a member of an organization then the application won't delete but show an error message, which is fine. But what would be an improvement, is the possibility to show to what organizations/repositories the user is member of, in that case I wouldn't have to go hunting through all organizations to find him/her to be able to remove him/her.

A better solution would probably be to remove him (but first warn that the user belongs to the following organizations: with a list to which ones).

If this issue involves the Web Interface, please include a screenshot

Listing the orgas the user is in, with an option to remove the membership on all would be great 👍

The thing to note is that if you're the only owner of an Orga you can't be deleted from it 🙁

What I can propose (and try to implement) is the following:
Admin clicks delete button on admin -> user details page
If deleted user has no organization, set flash message and redirect to /admin/users (just as now).
If user has organizations, redirect to a new page that will contain a list of organizations the user belongs to and a message stating that the user will be removed from all those organizations.

@bkcsoft 's note about one-user organization can be solved with removing the organization along with the user.

Since user has a settings page named organizations in v1.2 which will list all of his organizations and leave them. I think maybe it's no need other work. Any idea?

You mean the user settings? Is that still helpful for an admin? Even if it is, clicking through several buttons to delete the user doesn't make a lot of sense if it can be done automatically - unless there is a technical obstacle I'm not aware of.

Can't the whole team be removed with the last user?

Ok, here's my initial proposition (I will improve the styles to match the application better, treat it as a funcionalty mockup):

I think it show warning only where user is only owner. Also option could be added for this situation could possibly allow to specify user to whom ownership should be transfered like changing button "Trasfer ownership and delete". Also it should be modal dialog.

I initially wanted to implement it in a dialog (like this one), but I couldn't find anything similiar in the code and decided to go with separate page. If you are aware of such already existing component please direct me.
Transfer ownership and delete is good, but what if the user is only member of the organization? I would not like to go into lot of edge-cases here.
