Ok, I've converted the CLFSWM trac wiki to Gitlab wiki.
Here is the procedure I have used:

Copy trac.db in a directory

In the same directory, fetch trac2down.py (or one of its fork)
from:
https://gist.github.com/sgk/1286682#file-trac2down-py


I have modified it a little to fit the CLFSWM trac (the script is
attached with this email).

And then in this directory:

$ git clone git at common-lisp.net:clfswm/clfswm.wiki.git

$ cd clfswm.wiki/

$ ls
 --- empty directory ---

$ ../trac2down.py

$ ls
BindingHook.md  CLFSWM.md      DescribeHook.md  GIT.md    InFrench.md                 MenuCustomization.md  Patches.md  Setup.md          UserAPI.md
Bugs.md         Contribute.md  English.md       Home.md   InitHook.md                 NewIdeas.md           SVN.md      Start.md          UserConfiguration.md
BuildClisp.md   Customize.md   FAQ.md           Hooks.md  KeybindingCustomization.md  NewWindowHook.md      Sandbox.md  TipsAndTricks.md  start-french.md

$ git add *

$ git commit -a -m "Convert Trac to Gitlab"

[ Check if all is ok with gollum ]

$ git push origin HEAD


Here is the result:

From: https://trac.common-lisp.net/clfswm/wiki/WikiStart

To: https://gitlab.common-lisp.net/clfswm/clfswm/wikis/home

The page Outline is not (maybe yet) converted to a table of content.

Hope this helps.

Best regards,

Philippe
