The Apache Beam community recently migrated to GitHub Issues after years of using Jira as our issue tracker. This post details why we made the move, how we did it, and how to decide if migrating is appropriate for your project.
Since we had a huge backlog of active Jiras with valuable context, we decided to port all of them to Issues. To do this, we built our own migration script which copied over the issue, reporter, assignee, and some selected metadata as labels. Since Jira has a custom formatting syntax, this also required building in format translation to maintain things like code blocks and bullet points. All of this is open sourced at https://github.com/google/jira-to-issues.
