Migrate repo from GitLab to GitHub Full blog post @ http://ruby.zigzo.com/2015/03/23/moving-from-gitlab-to-github/
# Assume we are in your home directory
cd ~/
# Clone the repo from GitLab using the `--mirror` option
$ git clone --mirror git@your-gitlab-site.com:mario/my-repo.git
# Change into newly created repo directory
$ cd ~/my-repo.git
# Push to GitHub using the `--mirror` option. The `--no-verify` option skips any hooks.
$ git push --no-verify --mirror git@github.com:mario/my-repo.git
# Set push URL to the mirror location
$ git remote set-url --push origin git@github.com:mario/my-repo.git
# To periodically update the repo on GitHub with what you have in GitLab
git fetch -p origin
git push --no-verify --mirror
