+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1117588 +++ We should add links from https://hg.mozilla.org/ to DXR, where appropriate. e.g. https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/file/fd223e4af53d/xpcom/base/nsStackWalk.cpp should contain a link to http://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/xpcom/base/nsStackWalk.cpp. Erik: do you have any more ideas on how hg.mozilla.org could link or otherwise use DXR? One item that might be problematic is figuring out which repos to link. DXR might need to grow the ability to expose a list of repo URLs it indexes so we know which repos on hg.mozilla.org should contain DXR links. Even then, what should we do about repos that are "forks" of e.g. mozilla-central but aren't explicitly indexed by DXR? I argue we should display links for these too. Yay rabbit holing.
