Gitea Importer - Rescan git commit messages

I've imported a set of projects from Gitea into our new Gitlab CE instance.
While the import failed (no specific reason was given), it actually did mostly work: repos and issued were copied successfully. (Wikis were not, but I managed to fix that manually.)
However, in Gitea I had a nice collection of issues that were referenced from git commit messages (e.g. closes #X, references #Y and so on). In Gitlab these imported issues lost references to commit messages. Note that if I create a new commit message and push it to Gitlab, the reference to issue is correctly created.
So now I'm wondering if there is an option to manually trigger a "rescan of all commit messages" in order to re-link imported issues (in Gitlab) to old commit messages.
(Apologies if this is a simple case of RTFM, but I was unable to find it.)
(Edit: typos.)
