2034315 - Use UpdateBot to manage Cairo revendoring

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Graphics, task)

Description

[Jim Blandy :jimb]

Mozilla Central should use UpdateBot to manage the Cairo sources vendored at gfx/cairo/cairo, rather than maintaining a stack of patches by hand. The current process has fallen apart several times already.

Add a file gfx/cairo/moz.yaml to manage revendoring of the Cairo
sources in gfx/cairo/cairo, drawing sources from Mozilla's fork of
Cairo at github.com/FirefoxGraphics/cairo. See gfx/cairo/README
for details.

Delete the old patch stack. These patches are now all commits on the
firefox branch in github.com/FirefoxGraphics/cairo, applied to
Cairo's 1.18.4 tag.

Make some minor adjustments to the vendored sources in
gfx/cairo/cairo:

• Remove README.win32, which was deleted upstream.

• Rename meson_options.txt to meson.options.

• Set the executable bits on version.py.

Sorry for the delay. This moz.yaml looks fine, but it will not cause Updatebot to create bugs/run try pushes for you. You would need a tasks: section for that. But from the README that seems to be intentional, you want to vendor manually.
