Problem

Currently, when importing projects from GitHub to GitLab with option Import Markdown attachments checked, we import images, text, or binary attachments from repository comments, release posts, issue descriptions, and pull request descriptions (see docs).

However, we do not import videos, therefore links in Markdown to videos will break in case one removes the video attachments from GitHub.

Possible solution

Import videos as part of the Markdown attachments.

Open questions

Video files can be large, so importing them can significantly increase the storage needs and the import duration. Should we enforce a limit? Or should we have a separate option checkbox for videos?
