Starting with Beta 59 cycle, we’d like to push Fennec RC builds built off of moz-release repo to Firefox for release users on GooglePlay at 5% staged rollout. This means rolling out to Play store before we actually mark as shipped, provide initial downloads, etc. A new flavour may be best way forward for this. context: https://docs.google.com/document/d/128iKXooxw8Gv5FTHFORLcvIk2dc47Ynbj587SOTphZ8/edit?usp=sharing related, for desktop ff RC graphs in-tree, there is a flavour being implemented that we may be able to generalize or re-use: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1431799
I think Relman will need to change the strategy for release to 'rollout' before the RC, or this will break. We can keep it at rollout for all of m-r, or Relman will need to switch strategies again after the RC.
The above patches are here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=8948097&action=edit Attached to bug 1431799 since MozReview doesn't like my patch queue spanning two bugs.
Rolled out in bug 1431799. I still need to update releasewarrior wiki+templates.
