Import GitLab project error

[jiteshgupta1995]

Hi,

I am trying to export one of the gitlab project and import it. While importing at first I got the issue,

AttributeError: module 'urllib' has no attribute 'quote'

But I resolved by changing the
urllib.quote(project_path, safe='') -> urllib.parse.quote(project_path, safe='')

Later while importing the file I am getting following issue:

File "gitlab-project-import.py", line 60, in <module>
    status = gitlab.project_import(args.project_path, args.filepath)
  File "....\gitlab-project-export\lib\gitlab.py", line 191, in project_import
    r = self.__api_import(project_name, namespace, filepath)
  File "....\gitlab-project-export\lib\gitlab.py", line 43, in __api_import
    headers=self.headers)
  File "....\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\lib\site-packages\requests\api.py", line 119, in post
    return request('post', url, data=data, json=json, **kwargs)
  File "....\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\lib\site-packages\requests\api.py", line 61, in request
    return session.request(method=method, url=url, **kwargs)
  File "....\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\lib\site-packages\requests\sessions.py", line 516, in request
    prep = self.prepare_request(req)
  File "....\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\lib\site-packages\requests\sessions.py", line 459, in prepare_request
    hooks=merge_hooks(request.hooks, self.hooks),
  File "....\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\lib\site-packages\requests\models.py", line 317, in prepare
    self.prepare_body(data, files, json)
  File "....\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\lib\site-packages\requests\models.py", line 505, in prepare_body
    (body, content_type) = self._encode_files(files, data)
  File "....\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\lib\site-packages\requests\models.py", line 159, in _encode_files
    fdata = fp.read()
  File "....\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\lib\encodings\cp1252.py", line 23, in decode
    return codecs.charmap_decode(input,self.errors,decoding_table)[0]
UnicodeDecodeError: 'charmap' codec can't decode byte 0x9d in position 111: character maps to <undefined>

Any idea how to resolve this?

Hi, thank you for your report. It looks like some problem with non Unicode characters. I'll try it later this week and I also fix the new urllib call
