Hello,

I have a GitLab server with serveral repos. What is the easiest way, to migrate them all to my new Gitea server?

I know, I can migrate a single repo with the assistant, But that’s a very hard job.

Thanks.

It looks like that nobody has an answer. ☹

I did it by migrate all repos individually. A lot of work but now I have them in Gitea…
