-# Import your project from Bitbucket to GitLab
-
-Import your projects from Bitbucket to GitLab with minimal effort.
-
-## Overview
-
->**Note:**
-The [Bitbucket integration][bb-import] must be first enabled in order to be
-able to import your projects from Bitbucket. Ask your GitLab administrator
-to enable this if not already.
-
-- At its current state, the Bitbucket importer can import:
- - the repository description (GitLab 7.7+)
- - the Git repository data (GitLab 7.7+)
- - the issues (GitLab 7.7+)
- - the issue comments (GitLab 8.15+)
- - the pull requests (GitLab 8.4+)
- - the pull request comments (GitLab 8.15+)
- - the milestones (GitLab 8.15+)
- - the wiki (GitLab 8.15+)
-- References to pull requests and issues are preserved (GitLab 8.7+)
-- Repository public access is retained. If a repository is private in Bitbucket
- it will be created as private in GitLab as well.
-
-
-## How it works
-
-When issues/pull requests are being imported, the Bitbucket importer tries to find
-the Bitbucket author/assignee in GitLab's database using the Bitbucket ID. For this
-to work, the Bitbucket author/assignee should have signed in beforehand in GitLab
-and **associated their Bitbucket account**. If the user is not
-found in GitLab's database, the project creator (most of the times the current
-user that started the import process) is set as the author, but a reference on
-the issue about the original Bitbucket author is kept.
-
-The importer will create any new namespaces (groups) if they don't exist or in
-the case the namespace is taken, the repository will be imported under the user's
-namespace that started the import process.
-
-## Importing your Bitbucket repositories
-
-1. Sign in to GitLab and go to your dashboard.
-1. Click on **New project**.

-Import your projects from Gitea to GitLab with minimal effort.
-
-## Overview
-
->**Note:**
-This requires Gitea `v1.0.0` or newer.
-
-- At its current state, Gitea importer can import:
- - the repository description (GitLab 8.15+)
- - the Git repository data (GitLab 8.15+)

-- Repository public access is retained. If a repository is private in Gitea
- it will be created as private in GitLab as well.
-
-## How it works
-
-Since Gitea is currently not an OAuth provider, author/assignee cannot be mapped
-to users in your GitLab's instance. This means that the project creator (most of

-but a reference on the issue about the original Gitea author is kept.

-1. Click **Generate Token**.
-1. Copy the token hash.
-1. Go back to GitLab and provide the token to the Gitea importer.
-1. Hit the **List Your Gitea Repositories** button and wait while GitLab reads
- your repositories' information. Once done, you'll be taken to the importer
- page to select the repositories to import.
-
-### Select which repositories to import
-
-After you've authorized access to your Gitea repositories, you will be
-redirected to the Gitea importer page.
-
-From there, you can see the import statuses of your Gitea repositories.

-still be able to import their GitHub repositories with a
-[personal access token][gh-token].
-
->**Note:**
-Administrators of a GitLab instance (Community or Enterprise Edition) can also
-use the [GitHub rake task][gh-rake] to import projects from GitHub without the
-constrains of a Sidekiq worker.
-

-![New project page on GitLab](img/import_projects_from_new_project_page.png)
-
-Click on the **GitHub** link and the import authorization process will start.
-There are two ways to authorize access to your GitHub repositories:
-
-1. [Using the GitHub integration][gh-integration] (if it's enabled by your
- GitLab administrator). This is the preferred way as it's possible to
- preserve the GitHub authors/assignees. Read more in the [How it works](#how-it-works)
- section.
-1. [Using a personal access token][gh-token] provided by GitHub.

-![Select authentication method](img/import_projects_from_github_select_auth_method.png)

-### Authorize access to your repositories using the GitHub integration
-
-If the [GitHub integration][gh-import] is enabled by your GitLab administrator,
-you can use it instead of the personal access token.
-
-1. First you may want to connect your GitHub account to GitLab in order for
- the username mapping to be correct.
-1. Once you connect GitHub, click the **List your GitHub repositories** button
- and you will be redirected to GitHub for permission to access your projects.
-1. After accepting, you'll be automatically redirected to the importer.
-
-You can now go on and [select which repositories to import](#select-which-repositories-to-import).

-If you are not using the GitHub integration, you can still perform a one-off
-authorization with GitHub to grant GitLab access your repositories:

-1. Enter a token description.
-1. Check the `repo` scope.

-# Migrating from SVN to GitLab
-
-Subversion (SVN) is a central version control system (VCS) while
-Git is a distributed version control system. There are some major differences
-between the two, for more information consult your favorite search engine.
-
-## Overview
-
-There are two approaches to SVN to Git migration:
-
-1. [Git/SVN Mirror](#smooth-migration-with-a-gitsvn-mirror-using-subgit) which:
- - Makes the GitLab repository to mirror the SVN project.
- - Git and SVN repositories are kept in sync; you can use either one.
- - Smoothens the migration process and allows to manage migration risks.
-
-1. [Cut over migration](#cut-over-migration-with-svn2git) which:
- - Translates and imports the existing data and history from SVN to Git.
- - Is a fire and forget approach, good for smaller teams.

-## Smooth migration with a Git/SVN mirror using SubGit
-
-[SubGit](https://subgit.com) is a tool for a smooth, stress-free SVN to Git
-migration. It creates a writable Git mirror of a local or remote Subversion
-repository and that way you can use both Subversion and Git as long as you like.
-It requires access to your GitLab server as it talks with the Git repositories
-directly in a filesystem level.
-
-### SubGit prerequisites
-
-1. Install Oracle JRE 1.8 or newer. On Debian-based Linux distributions you can
- follow [this article](http://www.webupd8.org/2012/09/install-oracle-java-8-in-ubuntu-via-ppa.html).
-1. Download SubGit from https://subgit.com/download/.
-1. Unpack the downloaded SubGit zip archive to the `/opt` directory. The `subgit`
- command will be available at `/opt/subgit-VERSION/bin/subgit`.
-
-### SubGit configuration
-
-The first step to mirror you SVN repository in GitLab is to create a new empty
-project which will be used as a mirror. For Omnibus installations the path to
-the repository will be located at
-`/var/opt/gitlab/git-data/repositories/USER/REPO.git` by default. For
-installations from source, the default repository directory will be
-`/home/git/repositories/USER/REPO.git`. For convenience, assign this path to a
-variable:
-
-```
-GIT_REPO_PATH=/var/opt/gitlab/git-data/repositories/USER/REPOS.git
-```
-
-SubGit will keep this repository in sync with a remote SVN project. For
-convenience, assign your remote SVN project URL to a variable:
-
-```
-SVN_PROJECT_URL=http://svn.company.com/repos/project
-```
-
-Next you need to run SubGit to set up a Git/SVN mirror. Make sure the following
-`subgit` command is ran on behalf of the same user that keeps ownership of
-GitLab Git repositories (by default `git`):
-
-```
-subgit configure --layout auto $SVN_PROJECT_URL $GIT_REPO_PATH
-```
-
-Adjust authors and branches mappings, if necessary. Open with your favorite
-text editor:
-
-```
-edit $GIT_REPO_PATH/subgit/authors.txt
-edit $GIT_REPO_PATH/subgit/config
-```
-
-For more information regarding the SubGit configuration options, refer to
-[SubGit's documentation](https://subgit.com/documentation.html) website.
-
-### Initial translation
-
-Now that SubGit has configured the Git/SVN repos, run `subgit` to perform the
-initial translation of existing SVN revisions into the Git repository:
-
-```
-subgit install $GIT_REPO_PATH
-```
-
-After the initial translation is completed, the Git repository and the SVN
-project will be kept in sync by `subgit` - new Git commits will be translated to
-SVN revisions and new SVN revisions will be translated to Git commits. Mirror
-works transparently and does not require any special commands.
-
-If you would prefer to perform one-time cut over migration with `subgit`, use
-the `import` command instead of `install`:
-
-```
-subgit import $GIT_REPO_PATH
-```
-
-### SubGit licensing
-
-Running SubGit in a mirror mode requires a
-[registration](https://subgit.com/pricing.html). Registration is free for open
-source, academic and startup projects.
-
-We're currently working on deeper GitLab/SubGit integration. You may track our
-progress at [this issue](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/990).
-
-### SubGit support
-
-For any questions related to SVN to GitLab migration with SubGit, you can
-contact the SubGit team directly at [support@subgit.com](mailto:support@subgit.com).
-
-## Cut over migration with svn2git
-
-If you are currently using an SVN repository, you can migrate the repository
-to Git and GitLab. We recommend a hard cut over - run the migration command once
-and then have all developers start using the new GitLab repository immediately.
-Otherwise, it's hard to keep changing in sync in both directions. The conversion
-process should be run on a local workstation.
-
-Install `svn2git`. On all systems you can install as a Ruby gem if you already
-have Ruby and Git installed.
-
-```bash
-sudo gem install svn2git
-```
-
-On Debian-based Linux distributions you can install the native packages:
-
-```bash
-sudo apt-get install git-core git-svn ruby
-```
-
-Optionally, prepare an authors file so `svn2git` can map SVN authors to Git authors.
-If you choose not to create the authors file then commits will not be attributed
-to the correct GitLab user. Some users may not consider this a big issue while
-others will want to ensure they complete this step. If you choose to map authors
-you will be required to map every author that is present on changes in the SVN
-repository. If you don't, the conversion will fail and you will have to update
-the author file accordingly. The following command will search through the
-repository and output a list of authors.
-
-```bash
-svn log --quiet | grep -E "r[0-9]+ \| .+ \|" | cut -d'|' -f2 | sed 's/ //g' | sort | uniq
-```
-
-Use the output from the last command to construct the authors file.
-Create a file called `authors.txt` and add one mapping per line.
-
-```
-janedoe = Jane Doe <janedoe@example.com>
-johndoe = John Doe <johndoe@example.com>
-```
-
-If your SVN repository is in the standard format (trunk, branches, tags,
-not nested) the conversion is simple. For a non-standard repository see
-[svn2git documentation](https://github.com/nirvdrum/svn2git). The following
-command will checkout the repository and do the conversion in the current
-working directory. Be sure to create a new directory for each repository before
-running the `svn2git` command. The conversion process will take some time.
-
-```bash
-svn2git https://svn.example.com/path/to/repo --authors /path/to/authors.txt
-```
-
-If your SVN repository requires a username and password add the
-`--username <username>` and `--password <password` flags to the above command.
-`svn2git` also supports excluding certain file paths, branches, tags, etc. See
-[svn2git documentation](https://github.com/nirvdrum/svn2git) or run
-`svn2git --help` for full documentation on all of the available options.
-
-Create a new GitLab project, where you will eventually push your converted code.
-Copy the SSH or HTTP(S) repository URL from the project page. Add the GitLab
-repository as a Git remote and push all the changes. This will push all commits,
-branches and tags.
-
-```bash
-git remote add origin git@gitlab.com:<group>/<project>.git
-git push --all origin
-git push --tags origin
-```
