Anyone finding this in 2020+, there is a very convenient import method from Gitlab now as well:
Click [+] in the Gitlab header > "New project" > Tab "Import project" > Select "Gitlab"
After authorization on GitHub you'll be taken to https://gitlab.com/import/github/status for easy import management.
