Creation of organisations on Gitlab instance for Geography & related

We would be interested to mirror repositories from our three organisational instances on Github:

Department of Geography https://github.com/camunigeog/

CAMPOP (The Cambridge Group for the History of Population and Social Structure) https://github.com/campop/

Scott Polar Research Institute (SPRI) https://github.com/spri/

If you could create these with the names as above that would be great.

As discussed at the meeting at Engineering, we regard these as being sufficiently 'top-level' - Geography is obviously a Department, SPRI is part of Geography but well known in its own right, and CAMPOP is a joint initiative of Geography and History so should not be under either.

Could you give a quick pointer as to how we can set up mirroring of a repo from Github to Gitlab? (We may in future want to reverse that, but for now we will keep the Github repo as the canonical repo.)

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
