=== Phabricator integration === | |||
Although our [[Phabricator]] instance has been up since September 2017, there has been ongoing work to integrate it into our tools, most notably [[BMO]]. There is a tracking bug ({{bug|1381498}}) for the remaining work before we announce general availability and start encouraging people to move over. | |||
The last remaining item of note is forking Arcanist so that it works with git-cinnabar ({{bug|1443375}}). | |||
Impact: Switching to Phabricator has a number of benefits: | |||
* One sole tool for review, which allows the Engineering Workflow to concentrate its efforts, and eliminates the need for contributors to learn several tools. | |||
* A more intuitive interface than BMO and MozReview, with a contemporary look to appeal to new contributors. | |||
* Some integration with existing tools and processes, balancing complexity and disruption. | |||
* Excellent support from Phabricator's developers ([https://phacility.com Phacility]) and a large user community. | |||
