Transfer repository description by default #110

Closed akaihola closed 2 years ago

akaihola commented 2 years ago

This patch enables copying the project description from GitLab as the repository description on GitHub. Control characters disallowed by GitHub (like newlines) are turned into whitespace. No attempt is made to translate anything else like Markdown links or other formatting.

Nice. You may want to add the option to the README for completeness.

@akaihola Could you mention that in the Readme as suggested by mdbenito? Otherwise it looks good to me.

mdbenito commented 2 years ago

I think this could be merged as-is and then we quickly add the missing info to the readme.

Also, we could use a library like this one to convert to plain text.

@mdbenito fine by me
