To import a project from the list of your GitHub projects available:
```bash
# Omnibus installations
sudo gitlab-rake import:github[access_token,root,foo/bar]
# Installations from source
bundle exec rake import:github[access_token,root,foo/bar] RAILS_ENV=production
```
In this case, `access_token` is your GitHub personal access token, `root`
2017-09-10 17:25:29 +05:30
is your GitLab username, and `foo/bar` is the new GitLab namespace/project that
2017-08-17 22:00:37 +05:30
will get created from your GitHub project. Subgroups are also possible: `foo/foo/bar`.
To import a specific GitHub project (named `foo/github_repo` here):
```bash
# Omnibus installations
sudo gitlab-rake import:github[access_token,root,foo/bar,foo/github_repo]
# Installations from source
bundle exec rake import:github[access_token,root,foo/bar,foo/github_repo] RAILS_ENV=production
```
