Gitlab doesn't see existing repos
Created by: swish
We already had gitosis running and have several existing repos. Gitlab doesn't seem to see any of these. Are existing projects supported?

No, Gitlab does not support this. It would be nice if there's a one-time import script available, but it's not necessary.
- Create a new Gitlab installation with a fresh Gitosis
- Create the users and repos you actually need in Gitlab
- Add the proper remotes to your repo and push 'em to Gitlab
This is not ideal if you have a lot of repos, but it'll get the job done.

Actually it kind works... if you create a repo with the same name as it already exists, gitlab will see it correctly, modify anything and the post hooks are installed. What you need to do is manually change user assignments in gitolite-admin gitosis-admin as gitlab creates those funny users with the user id in their name
