Import your projects from Gitea to GitLab with minimal effort.

The Gitea importer can import:

When importing, repository public access is retained. If a repository is private in Gitea, it's
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 instance. This means that 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 Gitea author is kept.
+Because Gitea isn't an OAuth provider, author/assignee can't be mapped to users
+in your GitLab instance. This means the project creator (usually the user that
+started the import process) is set as the author. A reference, however, is kept
+on the issue about the original Gitea author.
-The importer creates any new namespaces (groups) if they don't exist or in
-the case the namespace is taken, the repository is imported under the user's
-namespace that started the import process.
