Time out while importing a repository

I'm trying to import a repository in Visual Studio Team Services.

The repository that I'm trying to import is a really huge one, and after some time I get the following error:

Oops! Your import of repository failed due to The operation has timed out.

Is there a way to increase the timeout, or does anyone know another way to overcome the problem?

I had the same problem with a repo > 5.2 GB on a private git server. I suspect the mirror cloning failed because of an expired certificate of our git server (we had no reason to update the certificate as it was private).

I our case we ended up pushing to a private gitlab repo, then import via the Azure web import form pointing to the new gitlab repo. That worked.

The import option is just for convenience. There's nothing stopping you from cloning the repo, adding a new remote, and pushing it to VSTS.
