Description
### What feature do you want to see added?
When scanning MRs, I get the following message if the user isn’t allowed to access the fork:
```
Ignoring merge requests as source project not found, Please check permission on source repo...
```
However, I don’t think there is any requirement for the builder to have access to the fork. The commits (and their authors) are also available on the target repo (for example under the `refs/merge-requests/*/head` refs).
