The migration has to be performed by GitHub staff (or at least it was the case 1.5 years ago). You'll want to get in touch with https://github.com/abbycabs who's leading these sort tasks at GitHub.
So you'd need to write an exporter (that's the repo David links), and debug it, before handing over to them, on a (trial) instance of GitHub Enterprise server (you can install it for free and use for a month or so - you'd need a Linux server to run it on).
