The code that we used for the Trac to github migration is in this repository <https://github.com/sagemath/trac-to-github>. Some things (including associating trac usernames with github usernames and creating issues, PRs and comments made by those users) required cooperation with Github and did not just use the public API. I was not involved in that aspect of the migration, so I'll let others speak to exactly what was involved. David
