To follow up on some previous threads, here is the plan for deprecating, archiving, and decommissioning MozReview.
The MozReview shutdown deadline is approaching. Although enhanced commit-series support is still in progress (see update below), MozReview users should start familiarizing themselves with Phabricator now. We have a guide specifically for MozReview users to ease the transition (which will be updated when the commit-series work is finalized): https://moz-conduit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/mozreview-migration-guide.html From August 6 to August 20, use of MozReview will be restricted to updates to existing reviews. In other words, review cycles in progress will be given until August 20 to be completed, but no new commit series will be permitted. On August 20, we will remove public access to MozReview and archive patches. Every landed, in-progress, and abandoned patch will be downloaded from MozReview and stored in an S3 bucket. The “stub attachments” in Bugzilla that currently redirect to MozReview will be updated to link to the appropriate S3 bucket. Review flags and bug comments will be preserved. After archiving is complete and verified, the MozReview servers will be decommissioned. We will also be writing a simple redirection service to map specific MozReview reviews to associated BMO comments, review requests to associated bugs, and review-request diffs to the appropriate S3 buckets. This service will be up shortly after MozReview is decommissioned. We realize and apologize that this is a fairly short timeline; however, the current location of the MozReview servers is in the process of being shut down, and thus it is urgent that we decommission this service soon to allow an orderly exit. As for enhanced support for series of commits in Phabricator, the new command-line interface to submit, update, and apply series (bug 1471678) is currently in review. The first release will support Mercurial only, but git-cinnabar support will follow shortly (the code is designed with it in mind). Work on series support in Lando (bug 1457525) is progressing; we will be posting screenshots of the new UI shortly. It should be ready in 2-3 weeks. Please note that we eventually plan to decommission Splinter as well; however, we know we need some time to work out the kinks in Phabricator. Splinter will remain operational near-term, but we ask everybody to familiarize themselves with Phabricator and file bugs when things don't work. *Please do not wait for Splinter EOL to try Phabricator; we need your feedback before then in order to act on it.* Mark _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
