My experience with a private GitLab instance (community edidtion) is that the 
URL redirections are valid as long as you don't create a new project with the 
same URL. But you get a warning during pulls and pushes that you should update 
your URL.

That's for git projects and some other parts (like users). But it's not true 
for example for API calls, CODEOWNER files, includes in the CI scripts and 
similar:

https://docs.gitlab.com/user/project/repository/#repository-path-changes

Beneath that, there is also a potential attack surface: If a top level group is 
renamed, an attacker could create a new user with that name and take over the 
namespace with that. Even if it is discovered quickly, it will destroy the old 
namespace.
