Yeah importing doesn't do it for me though. I know I'm not going to be able to get any people to go to my repos if they are on Gitlab. But if I could use Gitlab as the UI, that would be cool, and might be the start of something that would get me to eventually host things on Gitlab.
- emilycook 7y agoYeah that's fair, and we're pretty aware that we don't have e.g. the social functions that GitHub has. Your comment has sparked some internal discussion though, a full integration would be interesting.
- sam0x17 7y agoOn that note, legally, I don't think there is anything preventing you from automatically mirroring all MIT-licensed repos as well and pulling in some organic search engine traffic that way. Don't know if that also applies to the comments, pull requests, etc., but it's an intriguing move and definitely one I'd consider as long as there is a sane way of allowing the relevant users verify their ownership of a repo via GitHub API if they wish to "claim" the corresponding automatic gitlab repo.
