Hi Andreas,

Markus has created/migrated some packages there, and I've used
java-package as a test repository to experiment with the migration.

So far I've prepared a migration script [1] that does the following:
- Imports the repository from Alioth to Salsa
- Disables the unnecessary Salsa features (issues, snippets, wiki, jobs)
- Configures the hook tagging pending bugs in the BTS
- Configures the hook notifying the #debian-java IRC channel on events
(with KGB)
- Configures the Gitlab's emails-on-push hook (targeting
pkg-java-commits@lists.alioth.debian.org and dispatch@tracker.debian.org)

There is also a repository creation script [2] that can be used instead
of /srv/git.debian.org/git/pkg-java/setup-repository on Alioth.

The migration script is still missing a few things :
1. It doesn't disable the Alioth repository after the migration
2. The emails-on-push hook is incomplete because it only notifies about
pushes and not about other events like comments and merge requests. I
started working on such a hook [3] but it isn't ready yet. It's probably
better to start the migration without this hook and add it latter to the
repositories.

Assuming I complete the script this week we can consider moving the
repositories next week.
