It proved to be unmaintainable due to the following reasons:
- determining upstream branch for the technology preview was a manual
and tedious process
- once determined, actual Safari Technology Preview occasionally
diverted from the branch
This patch:
- rolls Firefox to v1269 which is now a firefox-stable build.
- introduces a new channel, `firefox-beta`, for our internal needs.
Fixes#6817
This reverts commit a25b11659be8887b700311180fcd3653aa9e472b.
In a discussion with Dmitry Gozman we decided to revert this and instead
proceed with the following approach:
- rename `//browser_patches/firefox` to `//browser_patches/firefox-beta`
- rename `//browser_patches/firefox-stable` folder to
`//browser_patches/firefox`
In all of the folders, we will keep the `BUILD_NUMBER` original so that
it doesn't clash on the CDN.
This patch:
- starts downloading Firefox Stable equivalent by default
- starts running Firefox-Stable on our smoke tests (tests-1)
- starts running Firefox-Beta on our CQ1 tests (tests-2)
Note: there's a little confusion right now with browser names:
- `firefox-stable` - firefox-stable equivalent
- `firefox`- firefox-beta equivalent
I'll rename `firefox` to `firefox-beta` in a follow-up.
Fixes#6817
