Bugzilla to Gitlab migration tool

The GNOME project's source code is moving from git.gnome.org to gitlab.gnome.org, and our bugs from bugzilla.gnome.org are moving to Gitlab, too!

While Git repositories can be easily moved to Gitlab — just add a Git remote for gitlab.gnome.org and push all the refs —, bugs need to be moved by a different tool. This project, bztogl, provides that tool.

Requirements

bztogl is a Python 3 script, and it requires the bugzilla and python-gitlab modules. You can set up a virtualenv for these like this:

mkdir ~/src/virtualenvs
virtualenv ~/src/virtualenvs/bztogl
source ~/src/virtualenvs/bztogl/bin/activate
# at this point your shell prompt will change to something like "(bztogl) $_"
pip install bugzilla
pip install python-gitlab
