https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1304829 renames the
RELEASE_BUILD switch to RELEASE_OR_BETA. This has already landed on
mozilla-inbound and so will likely get merged around to mozilla-central
and autoland over the weekend.
Please update your patches if they use RELEASE_BUILD and you want to
land them after that. It would appreciated to not land any RELEASE_BUILD
on autoland before the merge to prevent merge bustage.
You can see if it has already been merged around by e.g. checking
AppConstants.jsm for RELEASE_OR_BETA:
http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/file/tip/toolkit/modules/AppConstants.jsm#l25
https://hg.mozilla.org/integration/autoland/file/tip/toolkit/modules/AppConstants.jsm#l25
Reason for the change: It's not obvious from the name RELEASE_BUILD that
this will enable the ifdef-ed code to run on release and beta, so some
developers didn't know that or were unsure about it. This caused
unexpected behavior like failing tests after merge days. RELEASE_OR_BETA
reduces the likeliness of this.
Thank you
Sebastian
