By the way, I forgot to add: With this change, mapping files ([1] and [2] for gecko-dev and gecko-projects respectively) are less necessary (because git-cinnabar can be used instead).
1. https://moz-vcssync.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/mapping/gecko-dev/git-mapfile.tar.bz2 2. https://moz-vcssync.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/mapping/gecko-projects/git-mapfile.tar.bz2 We are considering stopping the publication of those files in a month. Please come forward if you have a use for them and would like to keep them alive.
