Move git repository from wherever to GitHub

Create a new repository on GitHub: https://github.com/new

Checkout the repository from the old provider using git clone --mirror, which implies -bare and thus does not generate a working copy:

git clone --mirror [email protected]:company/myrepo.git

Change into project directory:

cd myrepo.git

Push to the new Git Server:

git push --mirror [email protected]/myrepo.git
