GitLab to Github Migration in Easy steps

 Hello Guys,

Its been a long time but recently i have tasked with migrating some of the gitlab repo to github and our objective is to migrate all the branches from gitlab repo to github and we have active it below steps

1. clone the repo which we need to migrate

   git clone <gitlab repo URL>

2. using the below custom git command we are scanning all the remote repos available on the gitlab

git branch -r | grep -v '\->' | while read remote; do git branch --track "${remote#origin/}" "$remote"; done

3. using get fetch and git pull we are pulling all the repos to the local check

  git fetch --all

  git pull --all

4. Add the Remote of github repo to this repository 

    git remote add github <github URL>

5.  Push the changes on the GitHub 

     git push --mirror github

In the above 5 easy steps we have migrate the all branches with history intact to github.

Get the list of most popular users on Github by Location and Language

Hello Guys,

recently i have been asked to get the list of most popular users from github and get the github handle and  retrieve the email. and get the output in CSV
many of you think its a typical developers stuff in which we are going to take response and extract the data etc.etc but I have solve the same proble with shell script which i want to share .

#!/bin/bash
read -p "Enter Your language: "  lang
read -p "Enter Your location: "  location
query="language:$lang+location:$location+type:user+repos:>5"
# for debugging..
#echo $query
#curl "https://api.github.com/search/users?q=$query" |grep -v total_count | grep -v incomplete_results |jq -r '.items[] | .login'
echo "GithubHandle, Email"
for i in `curl --silent  "https://api.github.com/search/users?q=$query" |grep -v total_count | grep -v incomplete_results |jq -r '.items[] | .login'`
do
arr=(`curl --silent https://api.github.com/users/$i/events/public|grep '"email":' | sort |uniq | awk -F ':' '{print$2}'|sed 's/,$//'`)
echo "$i,${arr[*]}" 
done

This will do the magic
