REST-API-Endpunkte für Quellimporte
Verwenden Sie die REST-API, um einen Import aus einem Git-Quell-Repository zu starten.
Informationen zu Quellimporten
Warnung: Aufgrund der sehr geringen Nutzung und der Verfügbarkeit von Alternativen wurde die Quellimport-API retired. Weitere Details und Alternativen finden Sie im Änderungsprotokoll.
Sie können diese Endpunkte einsetzen, um einen Import aus einem Git-Repository zu starten, das mit einem anderen Dienst gehostet wird. Hierbei handelt es sich um dieselbe Funktion wie beim GitHub Importer. Weitere Informationen findest du unter Ein Repository mit GitHub Importer importieren. Bei einem typischen Quellimport wird der Import gestartet, und anschließend werden (optional) die Ersteller*innen und/oder die Einstellung für die Verwendung von Git LFS aktualisiert, sofern der Import große Dateien umfasst. Zum Ermitteln des Importstatus kannst du auch einen Webhook erstellen, der das RepositoryImportEvent
-Ereignis überwacht.
Diese Endpunkte unterstützen nur die Authentifizierung über ein personal access token (classic). Weitere Informationen findest du unter Verwalten deiner persönlichen Zugriffstoken.

Import status
This section includes details about the possible values of the status
field of the Import Progress response.
An import that does not have errors will progress through these steps:
detecting
- the "detection" step of the import is in progress because the request did not include avcs
parameter. The import is identifying the type of source control present at the URL.importing
- the "raw" step of the import is in progress. This is where commit data is fetched from the original repository. The import progress response will includecommit_count
(the total number of raw commits that will be imported) andpercent
(0 - 100, the current progress through the import).mapping
- the "rewrite" step of the import is in progress. This is where SVN branches are converted to Git branches, and where author updates are applied. The import progress response does not include progress information.pushing
- the "push" step of the import is in progress. This is where the importer updates the repository on GitHub Enterprise Cloud. The import progress response will includepush_percent
, which is the percent value reported bygit push
when it is "Writing objects".complete
- the import is complete, and the repository is ready on GitHub Enterprise Cloud.
If there are problems, you will see one of these in the status
field:
auth_failed
- the import requires authentication in order to connect to the original repository. To update authentication for the import, please see the Update an import section.error
- the import encountered an error. The import progress response will include thefailed_step
and an error message. Contact GitHub Enterprise Cloud Support for more information.detection_needs_auth
- the importer requires authentication for the originating repository to continue detection. To update authentication for the import, please see the Update an import section.detection_found_nothing
- the importer didn't recognize any source control at the URL. To resolve, Cancel the import and retry with the correct URL.detection_found_multiple
- the importer found several projects or repositories at the provided URL. When this is the case, the Import Progress response will also include aproject_choices
field with the possible project choices as values. To update project choice, please see the Update an import section.
The project_choices field
When multiple projects are found at the provided URL, the response hash will include a project_choices
field, the value of which is an array of hashes each representing a project choice. The exact key/value pairs of the project hashes will differ depending on the version control type.
Git LFS related fields
This section includes details about Git LFS related fields that may be present in the Import Progress response.
use_lfs
- describes whether the import has been opted in or out of using Git LFS. The value can beopt_in
,opt_out
, orundecided
if no action has been taken.has_large_files
- the boolean value describing whether files larger than 100MB were found during theimporting
step.large_files_size
- the total size in gigabytes of files larger than 100MB found in the originating repository.large_files_count
- the total number of files larger than 100MB found in the originating repository. To see a list of these files, make a "Get Large Files" request.

Update an import
An import can be updated with credentials or a project choice by passing in the appropriate parameters in this API request. If no parameters are provided, the import will be restarted.
Some servers (e.g. TFS servers) can have several projects at a single URL. In those cases the import progress will
have the status detection_found_multiple
and the Import Progress response will include a project_choices
array.
You can select the project to import by providing one of the objects in the project_choices
array in the update request.

Get commit authors
Each type of source control system represents authors in a different way. For example, a Git commit author has a display name and an email address, but a Subversion commit author just has a username. The GitHub Enterprise Cloud Importer will make the author information valid, but the author might not be correct. For example, it will change the bare Subversion username hubot
into something like hubot <hubot@12341234-abab-fefe-8787-fedcba987654>
.
This endpoint and the Map a commit author endpoint allow you to provide correct Git author information.
