Migration of Archived Projects

mrimann opened this issue · 1 comments

I've just exported from one Gitlab installation and tried to import into the new Gitlab Installation - so far this worked pretty well!

But one single project did not appear on the new Gitlab - but it was exported + imported successful without any warning. It turned out, that in the source Gitlab-Instance, this project was marked as archived.

As an improvement, it would be cool, if the exporter script either

  • warns on archived projects
  • ignores archived projects

Or alternatively, that the importer script would properly handle this (and the imported project would again be marked archived in the target installation, rather than getting lost after importing)

Interesting. I have to give a look how archived projects behave
