PostgreSQL sink: data migration from mongo/fs to postgres #1557

Description

@dcoric

Follow-up to #1497 (PostgreSQL sink backend, added in #1532).

The postgres sink bootstraps an empty schema but provides no path to move existing data from the fs or mongo backends.

Decision needed first

users._id and repos._id are UUID columns (gen_random_uuid()), but mongo _ids are 24-char ObjectId hex strings, which are not valid UUIDs. The migration must either:

  • regenerate IDs on import (repos are looked up by URL, users by username, and pushes reference repos by URL, so this is mostly safe — but /repo/:id links would change), or
  • change those columns to TEXT to preserve the originals.

Scope

A documented, scripted migration (fs / mongopostgres). The adapter's idempotent upserts (writeAudit, createRepo, createUser / updateUser) can be reused by the importer.
