The Mozilla Firefox source code is now officially available on GitHub as they work to transition from their hg.mozilla.org servers.

Mozilla Firefox recently migrated its canonical home from the Mozilla.org servers to now being on GitHub. This change is just in relation to the official source repository and doesn't affect the bug/issue tracking, continuous integration (CI), or other features.

The Firefox Mercurial servers are still around for now at least and being synced from GitHub. So in the immediate term no major workflow changes but for those interested you can find the Firefox sources via mozilla-firefox/firefox on GitHub.
