For a long time Firefox Desktop development has supported both Mercurial and Git users. This dual SCM requirement places a significant burden on teams which are already stretched thin in parts. We have made the decision to move Firefox development to Git.

  • 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
  • We're still working through the planning stages, but we're expecting at least six months before the migration begins

The fact that people still use Subversion is the real crime.

Unreal engine basically requires it for decent version control iirc. i had a nightmare trying to get git to work on my university project a few years back

It's Perforce I think, not svn.
