It is not possible for the master/owner level user to create forks for each 
user or transfer it when they create forks in their namespaces when the 
number of developers is large.

Okay so assuming developers have to fork the private repo in their own 
namespace, how to ensure that the other members of the group have read 
access to the fork of the developer so that they can follow changes and 
when there is a merge request they can clone the repo to their computers 
test it out before giving review comments or merging it?

Please suggest ways.
