[Andrew Sutherland [:asuth] (he/him)]

On bug 1535699 I just prepared a patch specifically for mozilla-beta (which will imminently me mozilla-release). I prepared the patch against the "beta" target locally (ex: "hg checkout beta") and then used moz-phab to prepare a patch.

When I view the review in Phabricator at https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/D30685 I see the repository as "Repository rMOZILLACENTRAL mozilla-central" and when I click on "preview landing" for lando, the only identification of where it might go is "Landing To: integration/autoland".

While this is a somewhat specialized use-case, I think it would be really helpful for the phabricator and/or lando pages to explicitly mention situations like beta while using the term "beta" so it can be found via ctrl-f, even if they just end up linking to specific documentation elsewhere.

In particular, I was looking at the following pages/sections:

• https://moz-conduit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/phabricator-user.html?highlight=branch#landing-patches
• https://moz-conduit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/lando-user.html#landing-a-revision
