Bitbucket is ending Mercurial support

Description

Bitbucket is ending support for Mercurial repositories. Since ZILF and related projects all use Mercurial, we need to secure new hosting. Even staying with Bitbucket (and converting to Git) would involve a migration effort.

We've been approved for hosting on the public FOSS instance of Heptapod, a Mercurial-based fork of GitLab. We now need to:

  • verify that the code and issues have been ported successfully

  • set up a build pipeline and project documentation using Heptapod's equivalents

  • set up hosting for release binaries

  • import development branches

  • add a note crediting the hosting service

  • set up access for other contributors

  • make the project visible

  • redirect visitors from Bitbucket to Heptapod
