1539461 - [remote-dbg-next] Remove codebase for the old aboutdebugging

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(DevTools :: about:debugging, enhancement, P3)

Description

[Julian Descottes [:jdescottes]]

In Fx 69 we will enable the new about:debugging by default Bug 1518469. We should be able to delete the codebase for the old about:debugging when Fx 70 cycle starts.

We should:

• delete the old about:debugging
• delete the preference to switch between old and new about:debugging
• remove the about:debugging-new nightly-only URL
• update all links that currently point to old about:debugging URLs:
  • https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/a7315d78417179b151fef6108f2bce14786ba64d/devtools/client/menus.js#126
  • https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/search?q=about%3Adebugging%23&case=false&regexp=false&path=

(edit to shift shipping from 68 to 69, and deletion from 69 to 70)

We are now shifting the release of the new remote debugging to Firefox 69. Let me cancel the reviews here.
