Display or communicate import result to the user when some imported element fails
Imagine the situation where we have a big repository with a lot of LFS files. We import it, and some of the LFS files couldn't be imported. We should tell the user which ones did fail and maybe a way to retry to download them.
This can be also extended to elements like issues, comments, etc.

Good idea! The GitHub importer currently silently skips over any resources (issues, PRs) that can't be imported, and I think the other importers fail hard. It would be great if we allowed the import to succeed, but still communicated to the user that one or more subresources failed to be imported.

I've been fixing an issue related to the LFS import and I've faced this problem again. We should really communicate the user in the import process that some LFS objects couldn't be imported.

Makes sense. We also encountered the NFS problem while doing https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/gl-infra/infrastructure/issues/5648

Hi,
when do you think this can be implemented, as I am also run into this on my self-managed instance.
Thanks in advance, Ron
