    Here are the actual details. Seems like they used to support Git and Mercurial, which is of course ridiculous in 2025.

    Moving to pure Git & Github is a great move that will lower the barrier to contribution significantly. Well… it would have anyway except

    • We will continue to use Bugzilla, moz-phab, Phabricator, and Lando
    • Although we’ll be hosting the repository on GitHub, our contribution workflow will remain unchanged and we will not be accepting Pull Requests at this time

    Shame. I guess it is a ton more work to migrate those, and Github’s offerings are a fair bit more basic than e.g. Phabricator and presumably Lando (e.g. I found out Github’s merge queue forces you to pick between squashing and merging all PRs in the same way). Bugzilla is trash though.
