After export with comments, import generates separate issues. #48

Closed BadgerOnABike closed 2 years ago

Recently I had to migrate everything over to a new organization and this tool helped massively.

I found that, although the issue numbers were exported they were ignored (which I see now is in the code as title is the anchor) however it also generated a number of issues with the same title.

Is the behaviour intended to be able to import issues and comments or is it operating as expected?

(I did sort it out by manually moving the comments into a single issue line)

Hi,

although the issue numbers were exported they were ignored

when importing I do not think you can control the issue number - GitHub assigns issue numbers sequentially.

however it also generated a number of issues with the same title

Could you please clarify that a bit more, and provide a replication case if you think it's a bug?

Thanks!
