It has been proposed to move the Bugzilla source from bzr.mozilla.org to git.mozilla.org with a read-only mirror on GitHub.
It has been proposed to use [http://git-scm.com/ Git] as Bugzilla's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revision_control VCS] instead of [http://bazaar.canonical.com/ Bazaar], and move the Bugzilla source from bzr.mozilla.org to git.mozilla.org with a read-only mirror on GitHub.
 
The migration was completed successfully on 2014/03/11. git.mozilla.org currently contains the repositories of record for Bugzilla and related code.
