Migrate issues from internal repo to here

[filmaj]

Is that desired?

Also may be blocked by #5 first.

We do want to do this. It is part of the internal open source migration plan. I think we are waiting on a review of existing issues (to close ones that aren't going to be copied over). The issue copy script won't copy existing comments on issues sadly.

I'll do a run through on the internal issues. Larry will jump in as well.

@stevengill what about issue numbers used in commit messages internally? is that linking all lost forever?

[stevengill]

That linking will be lost, unfortunately.

[GarthDB]

Shame :(

Using a tool like git_mover works but:

1. you lose old issue numbers / get assigned new random ones
2. you lose all comments
3. whichever personal access key you use to run the script will be the author of the issues

That said, could probably expand the tool to try to address some of this, at least #2 somewhat.
