[pytest-dev] Pytest migration to GitHub

[Bruno Oliveira]

Hi everyone,

Today we will migrate the pytest repository from bitbucket (Hg) to GitHub
(Git), sometime after 6pm (GMT -03:00).

Until then feel free to commit and handle issues as usual, but when the
process starts please refrain to make any changes to issues or new commits
until the process finishes. I will send an email to this list when the
process officially starts, and it is expected to take no longer than 1 hour
before normal work, now on the new repository, can resume.

For those interested, here are the steps for the migration:

1. Create github.com/pytest-dev/pytest and move current issues;
2. Convert pytest Hg repository to Git and upload to GitHub;
3. Add to bitbucket's README a notice about the move to GitHub, and that
new issues/PRs should be posted there;

(At this point, work on the new repository can resume)

4. Ask submitters to re-create PRs at the new repository;
5. Update all links in the documentation and PyPI;
6. Update "how to contribute" docs;
7. Upload new docs to pytest.org;
8. Send an email to all relevant mailing lists about the migration;

Suggestions and comments are welcome!

Cheers,
