These repositories must have been - managed by GitLab previously, because the Rake task relied on the specific directory structure or a specific custom Git setting in order to work (`gitlab.fullpath`). - - Importing repositories using this Rake task had limitations. The Rake task: - - - Only knew about project and project wiki repositories and didn't support repositories for designs, group wikis, or snippets. - - Permitted you to import non-hashed storage projects even though these aren't supported. - - Relied on having Git config `gitlab.fullpath` set. [Epic 8953](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/8953) proposes removing support for this setting. - - Alternatives to using the `gitlab:import:repos` Rake task include: - - - Migrating projects using either [an export file](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/settings/import_export.html) or - [direct transfer](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/group/import/#migrate-groups-by-direct-transfer-recommended) migrate repositories as well. - - Importing a [repository by URL](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/import/repo_by_url.html). - - Importing a [repositories from a non-GitLab source](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/import/). |
