This will break the universe, but better late than never 🥲

⚠️ PSA: Tomorrow Wednesday March 6 between 9:30am and 11am CET (starting 12:30am in San Francisco, 3:30am in New York, 5:30pm in Tokyo), we will transfer the lampepfl/dotty repository to scala/scala3.

During that operation, the CI will not be operational. Any in-progress job will be canceled as we start the transfer. Please do not attempt to restart jobs. Avoid submitting PRs or pushing to branches with open PRs during the operation. Once the repo has been transferred and the CI is back online, existing PRs will need to be rebased on the latest main if they want a new CI run.

GitHub will automatically redirect HTTPS and git requests, so no immediate action will be required from your side for your links to keep working.

We will post a new message here when we start and finish.

Sorry for the disturbance, and thank you for your understanding.

I may be taking a joking/casual remark too seriously, but: what are you concerned might break? (besides Dotty's own CI, which will be taken care of during the upgrade) GitHub is really good at redirecting existing links when a repo moves.

It was mostly a joke.

Any automation that is taken for granted that it works. Maybe some scripts won't take the redirection kindly, who knows... I won't be surprised if we end up being surprised ;)

I think this change is important for Scala, so it will be worth it nonetheless, even if there are problems.
