Incremental project imports

Proposal
As a devops/release engineer I am managing an ongoing migration process for many projects using Bitbucket towards Gitlab, the number of repos and build infra is sufficiently large for the need to do a gradual migration where bitbucket is in use for some time before fully switching to gitlab for commits.
Users commit changes to bitbucket server and these changes are mirrored into gitlab where the builds happen (only some of our branches have gitlab configuration, others are built by other CIs)
I would like to be able to repeatedly re-run some or all of the bitbucket import process without deleting my gitlab project as I would like to retain the build history in gitlab.
Specifically I need to be able to run the import from scratch once, and then run it again at a later date to import subsequent pull requests that have happened since the first import. This would greatly reduce the barrier to adoption where multiple and legacy systems need to remain supported for a period.
