936970 - Remove the outdated Firefox Sync in-product pages

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(www.mozilla.org :: General, defect)

Description

[Kohei Yoshino [:kohei]]

These pages for the old Firefox Sync *extension* are no longer used:

http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/sync/firstrun.html
http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/sync/secondrun.html
http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/sync/updated.html

Oh, the firstrun page is still promoting Firefox Home ;)

sgarrity: Thanks for your review!

The former RewriteRule just redirected the older Sync landing page (index.html) to the new location:

>  RewriteRule ^(\w{2,3}(?:-\w{2}(?:-mac)?)?/)?firefox/sync[/]?$ /$1mobile/sync/ [R=permanent]

The new RewriteRule will redirect all in-product pages (firstrun.html, secondrun.html and updated.html) as well as the older landing page (index.html) to the current Sync landing page:

> RewriteRule ^(\w{2,3}(?:-\w{2}(?:-mac)?)?/)?firefox/sync /$1mobile/sync/ [R=permanent]

I think those redirects might be better than showing 404 Not Found or 410 Gone pages.

Merged to stage in r122660 and production in r122661.
