I went ahead and created an account on GitLab.com. So far I can tell the transition is seamless. You can import a repository from GitHub with only a few clicks. Issues will be inherited, but the single PR on the repo I tried to migrate got lost on the way.
Importing Pull Requests will be possible with the next version of gitlab that's going to be released on the 22nd january. See this MR for more information: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/merge_requests/2168
