I'm moving a particular set of builds from an existing Visual Studio Team Service project to a new one. Unfortunately, I cannot locate a way to migrate the build definitions from one project to another. There doesn't appear to be an import/export function or another mechanism.

Is there a way to move these without manually recreating the builds in the new project?

This is now available from within the VSTS Build Definitions web UI:

VSTS Export and clone.
