Gitea version (or commit ref): 1.13.4
Git version:
Operating system:
Database (use [x]):
- PostgreSQL
- MySQL
- MSSQL
- SQLite
Can you reproduce the bug at https://try.gitea.io:
- Yes (provide example URL)
- No
Log gist:

I'm using python script to migrate mirrors into Gitea

for (u, n) in zip(repo_urls, repo_names):
    print("repo_url=", u," / repo_name=", n)

    # Mirror to Gitea if I haven't forked this repository from elsewhere
    m = {
        "repo_name"         : n,
        "clone_addr"        : u,
        "mirror"            : True,
        "private"           : False,
        "issues"            : True,
        "labels"            : True,
        "milestones"        : True,
        "pull_requests"     : True,
        "releases"          : True,
        "wiki"              : True,
        "uid"               : 284
    }

    jsonstring = json.dumps(m)

    print("jsonstring...", jsonstring)

    r = session.post("{0}/repos/migrate".format(gitea_url), data=jsonstring)
    if r.status_code != 201:            # if not CREATED
        if r.status_code == 409:        # repository exists
            continue
        print(r.status_code, r.text, jsonstring)

Labels is set to TRUE, but labels will be not migrated. If I do the same thru Gitea UI -> Github mirror than labels are migrated.

Are all the values for the boolean parameters default values?

For mirrors, only git data and wiki data transfer are implemented. Other options are only for github/gitlab/gitea/gogs migrations.

ok. But if "service" isn't set in json request and it's an GitHub URL, which settings will be used?

service defaults to "git", as it is a common denominator.
If you want to autodetect service based on repo URL, you're very welcome to implement that! ;)
Relevant code:
dc56fb7c84/modules/convert/utils.go (L26)

Lerning go is on my ToDo list ;)

OK so this is actually a feature request and not a bug - therefore I'm going to close this as not-a-bug @somera please consider re-opening with a feature request.
