Error: src refspec 'refs/gei/pull-requests/2/merge-clean' does not match any existing object

We are trying to migrate one repository from bitbucket to github using the following command:

gh bbs2gh migrate-repo --bbs-server-url https://git.ourcompany.com  \
    --bbs-project ${repoProj} --bbs-repo ${bitbucketRepoName} --github-org our-company --github-repo ${githubRepoName} \
    --ssh-user renatoprado --ssh-port 2222 \
    --ssh-private-key ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_company \
    --aws-bucket-name migration-to-github \
    --bbs-shared-home /home/appbox/data/git.ourcompany.com/shared \
    --archive-download-host 10.20.8.110 --target-repo-visibility internal

And we got the following error:

The repository that we are migrating has:

• 7476 Pull requests
• 145 branches
• 44844 commits

Initially I thought that the error was associated with the size of the repository so I made a fork that didn't had the PRs, deleted some branches and was able to migrate the fork.

So we did the same with the original repository, we deleted some branches, tried to migrate but got the same error, so I think it might be related to the amount of the Pull requests but Frankly the error doesn't say much to me.

@renato-prado Sorry for the delay in getting back to you! Could you please create a GitHub Support ticket so we can look into this for you? The error definitely looks strange!

Will do it

@timrogers I opened the support ticket of number #2489498

Hi
I have this same issue - for declined PRs, we just removed them.
But for the merged, this is not possible.
@rpradotempo @prkstaff @timrogers, can You share the solution? Please.
