Migrate WhatsApp from Android to iPhone (without root)

Description

After working around the clock searching for a way to migrate WhatsApp messages from Android to my brand-spankin' old iPhone X, coming across countless articles explaining that it was virtual impossible - especially without access to a Mac device, I thankfully came across a solution, and only felt it necessary to share.
I have tested this method using a Moto G Fast (Android 11), iPhone X (iOS 14.6), and Windows 10 PC.

Important Notes:

• Media files and shared locations will not be imported/migrated. They will be shown instead as placeholders.

Using SSH through airplane WiFi that blocks port 22

Many aircraft that offer wifi only permit access to machines on port 80/443, the standard http(s) ports. If you want to SSH, you have to set up an intermediate machine that hosts the SSH service on either port 80 or 443. An easy (and free) way to do this is via a Google free-tier micro instance. These instances have a 1 GB transfer ceiling per month, but so long are you are only transmitting textual data a few days per month, this limit should not be easily exceeded. Set up one of these VMs via the Google Cloud console, and select CentOS 7 as the disk image. Make sure that you allow http/https traffic on the instance, the two checkboxes in the Firewalls section of the VM settings. Optionally, set a static external IP address for your server in the VM config, in case you don't want to look up the IP each time. Then, ssh into the new VM (the IP address will be listed as the "external IP" in the list of instances) and edi

Whether you're trying to give back to the open source community or collaborating on your own projects, knowing how to properly fork and generate pull requests is essential. Unfortunately, it's quite easy to make mistakes or not know what you should do when you're initially learning the process. I know that I certainly had considerable initial trouble with it, and I found a lot of the information on GitHub and around the internet to be rather piecemeal and incomplete - part of the process described here, another there, common hangups in a different place, and so on.

In an attempt to coallate this information for myself and others, this short tutorial is what I've found to be fairly standard procedure for creating a fork, doing your work, issuing a pull request, and merging that pull request back into the original project.

Creating a Fork

Just head over to the GitHub page and click the "Fork" button. It's just that simple. Once you've done that, you can use your favorite git client to clone your repo or j
