When importing from github, import status says failed when it was acutally successfully imported

I recently decided to move to gitlab from github and importing all my projects from github. I did so by

1. New Project
2. Import from github
3. Import all projects

The import went for a few seconds and almost all repositories showed failed. But when I check the files in each of them, they are all showing up.

Why is that status showing as failed ?

1. Is it partial import of the project files itself ? Or,
2. is it partial import of the commit history and other metadata ?
