Okay, but what if they have namespace issues with code pointing to their

take away was we could keep the existing GH repos in place.

That is where transfers come into play. If a repository is _transferred_ (as opposed to copied or recreated), the old URL will automatically redirect to the new one. Thus https://github.com/foo/kie-blabla.git would automatically redirect to https://github.com/apache/incubator-kie-blabla.git

Transferring the canonical source repository to the ASF (which means a dual-master setup on gitbox and github) is a requirement for graduation, but I am not aware that this needs to happen at a specific point during incubation...so long as it happens.


Did I misunderstand?

Use the ASF Self Serve tool [1] to create the git repos in ASF gitbox
and they will be mirrored on GitHub automatically.

It's easy to copy the git history from an existing git repo into the
new ASF ones.

Infra has setup the ability to keep the ASF git repository in sync with
GitHub repositories in the Apache org space. Podlings starting incubation
are supposed to transfer their repositories to the ASF.

The KIE podling has a question that I don't know the answer to. They

wondering if they are required to mirror their source into the Apache
GitHib organization? They will be hosting their code in their own GH
repo,
but they want to know if the mirror is necessary as well.
