How to migrate from Gogs/GitHub/GitLab to Gitea

To migrate from Gogs to Gitea:

To migrate from GitHub to Gitea, you can use Gitea's built-in migration form.

In order to migrate items such as issues, pull requests, etc. you will need to input at least your username.

To migrate from GitLab to Gitea, you can use this non-affiliated tool:

To use the AWS CodeCommit API, Gitea requires an access key ID and a secret access key. For security reasons, we recommend creating a new user with the minimum necessary permissions and generating an access key ID and secret access key for the migration. The minimum permissions required for this user are as follows:
```
{
  "Version": "2012-10-17",
  "Statement": [
    {
      "Effect": "Allow",
      "Action": [
        "codecommit:GetRepository",
        "codecommit:GitPull",
        "codecommit:ListPullRequests",
        "codecommit:GetPullRequest",
        "codecommit:GetCommentsForPullRequest"
      ],
      "Resource": [
        "arn:aws:codecommit:<region>:<account>:<Repo-to-Migrate>
    }
  ]
}
```
- If you do not need to migrate pull requests, you can remove the ListPullRequests, GetPullRequest, and GetCommentsForPullRequest actions.
- For instructions on how to create an IAM user and assign permissions, you can refer to this AWS documentation.
