What is a Project?

Warp organizes migrations into Projects. In Warp, a Project is an object for managing a migration engagement — that is, an event where you will be migrating repositories to GitHub. Projects allow you to view and manage a set of migrations as a distinct operation with its own team, timeline, and budget. Projects are one of Warp’s ways to make migrations more manageable:

• If you have a small collection of repositories to migrate, you might choose to perform their migrations in a single engagement and use a single project.
• If you are performing migrations for multiple clients, you might choose to use one project for each client.
• If you’re working with an organization with a large number of repositories to migrate — numbering in the thousands, tens of thousands, or even more — you’ll probably want to divide that task into multiple projects carried out over a period of time.

The Projects Page

When you sign into Warp, you are taken to the Projects page, which contains the following:

• Projects: The list of active migration engagements, a.k.a. Projects.
• Pending Installations: If you have any projects that have not yet been fully set up and configured, they will appear in this list.
• Create a New Project button: Starts the process of creating a new project.

​

For every active Project, the list contains an item that looks like this: Each item has the following elements:

• The Project’s name.
• These buttons:
  • : Settings. View and manage the Project’s settings.
