This look great, thanks to everyone involved!
Some feedback:
- When I click to the "Wiki" link on the left it opens "Home" page and I don't
know how to go to the index from there. I think we may want index to be the
home page for the wiki?
- Redirects don't seem to work:
https://gitlab.staging.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/wikis/commentary/rts/heap-objects
- Comparing these two pages:
https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Commentary/Rts/Storage/HeapObjects?red...
https://gitlab.staging.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/wikis/commentary/rts/storage/heap...
The Gitlab page doesn't have images that Trac page has. Secondly, the "_|_"
string used in the Trac page is migrated as italic "|" in Gitlab.

Hi everyone,
Over the past few weeks we have been hard at work sorting out the last batch of issues in GHC's Trac-to-GitLab import [1]. At this point I believe we have sorted out the issues which are necessary to perform the final migration:
* We are missing only two tickets (#1436 and #2074 which will require a bit of manual intervention to import due to extremely large description lengths)
* A variety of markup issues have been resolved
* More metadata is now preserved via labels. We may choose to reorganize or eliminate some of these labels in time but it's easier to remove metadata after import than it is to reintroduce it. The logic which maps Trac metadata to GitLab labels can be found here [2]
* We now generate a Wiki table of contents [3] which is significantly more readable than GitLab's default page list. This will be updated by a cron job until underlying GitLab pages list becomes more readable.
* We now generate redirects for Trac ticket and Wiki links (although this isn't visible in the staging instance)
* Milestones are now properly closed when closed in Trac
* Mapping between Trac and GitLab usernames is now a bit more robust
As in previous test imports, we would appreciate it if you could have a look over the import and let us know of any problems your encounter.
If no serious issues are identified with the staging site we plan to proceed with the migration this coming weekend. The current migration plan is to perform the final import on gitlab.haskell.org on Saturday, 9 March 2019.
This will involve both gitlab.haskell.org and ghc.haskell.org being down for likely the entirety of the day Saturday and likely some of Sunday (EST time zone). Read-only access will be available to gitlab.staging.haskell.org for ticket lookup while the import is underway.
After the import we will wait at least a week or so before we begin the process of decommissioning Trac, which will be kept in read-only mode for the duration.
Do let me know if the 9 March timing is problematic.
Cheers,
- Ben
