A project for migrating issues from JIRA to GitHub. A sample of the migration from Spring Security’s JIRA to GitHub issues can be found at rwinch/spring-security-migrate-issues See src/main/resources/application.properties for settings.

Some Key Features:

• Performs basic conversion from JIRA markup to GitHub markup

• Uses GitHub’s experimental import issue API for increased speed and to keep dates accurate

• Links related issues

• Since GitHub issues does not allow for multiple fix versions, the migration creates a separate issue (called a backport issue) for each additional fix version and links to the original issue. Each backport issue has a label named "Backport" on it so they can easily be found/filtered out.

• Each migrated issue has a Jira label added to it, so that if necessary the migration can be removed and performed again.

• Each issue has a link to the original JIRA issue

• Each comment has a link to the JIRA user profile of the original author
