We can utilize repository mirroring from the source gitlab instance.

• Explore automating this task, can be accomplished with pretty simple scripts (terraform is used now)
• Ensure that the approach works as expected based on 1-2 test repositories.
• Ensure all the history, branches and tags are migrated
• Ensure all the users are able to access their commits history and statistics
• Ensure all the CI/CD configuration is migrated - custom scripts or manual interventions will be needed here
• Ensure all the repos are able to use the repo with the shared pipelines
• Ensure the mirroring works as expected in flight mode - we want to be sure that all the data is continuously migrated

Optional functionality:

• Should we activate the issue trackers?
• Should we activate the wiki functionality?
