Local copy of one branch from public repo

git remote add ti git://git.ti.com/ti-linux-kernel/ti-linux-kernel.git
git remote add tilocal /home/user/mirrors/ti-linux-kernel
git fetch ti refs/heads/ti-linux-3.14.y 
git checkout ti-linux-3.14.y

Now we have latest version from ti-linux-3.14.y branch. Add our local GitLab server 

git remote add gitlab ssh://path...

And push current branch (we are on ti-linux-3.14.y after checkout) 

git push -u gitlab

repo clean and repack

git reflog expire --expire=1.minute refs/heads/master
git fsck --unreachable      
git prune                   
git gc
