Eric K Idema 12aa1f898d Import from Github using Personal Access Tokens.
This stands as an alternative to using OAuth to access a user's Github
repositories.  This is setup in such a way that it can be used without OAuth
configuration.

From a UI perspective, the how to import modal has been replaced by a full
page, which includes a form for posting a personal access token back to the
Import::GithubController.

If the user has logged in via GitHub, skip the Personal Access Token and go
directly to Github for an access token via OAuth.

Migrating projects to a GitLab instance

  1. Bitbucket
  2. GitHub
  3. GitLab.com
  4. FogBugz
  5. SVN

In addition to the specific migration documentation above, you can import any Git repository via HTTP from the New Project page. Be aware that if the repository is too large the import can timeout.

Migrating from self-hosted GitLab to GitLab.com

You can copy your repos by changing the remote and pushing to the new server; but issues and merge requests can't be imported.
