migrating project from code.google.com to github step-by-step

migrating project from code.google.com to github step-by-step

for the best result

  1. use google/github importer this is to migrate a project to github (this is only to get the issues migrated)
  2. use github REST API to save/download the issues
  3. destroy the github repo
  4. create new github repo
  5. use github REST API to restore add the issue
  6. use wiki migration scripts to migrate the code.google.com wiki to github (the google to github migration does NOT migrate wikis)
  7. manually migrate the project sources from google to github again using authors file and push it into the github repo
  8. manually (or is there a automatic/scriptable way?) migrate the google project page into a README.md file
