Special announcements
As communicated in our recent blog post, we are rapidly approaching deployment of the first phase of our migration to GitLab for Drupal.org's developer tools. We've included messages about this transition in our change notifications for quite a few months now, but as the date approaches we wanted to send a special reminder.
The migration window for Phase 1 is planned for the first half of January 2019. The specific dates will be announced towards the beginning of the month.
Please follow @drupal_infra on twitter for regular updates.
Important: the git:// protocol is not supported
We want to emphasize in this special announcement that the git:// protocol for Git connections will not be supported. This has in fact never been officially supported in our current infrastructure, but some users have been using this undocumented feature.
Our only official support is for ssh and https protocols for Git, and the undocumented support of git:// will no longer function with the GitLab transition, so anyone using this undocumented feature should update to the https method documented below immediately.
Planned outage: There will be a planned outage of the git:// protocol for one hour on January 3rd - from 1pm to 2pm Pacific time, and another outage for 24 hours beginning at 9am on January 10th. Git services will continue to be available on the supported protocols.
Change to the Git remote format for Drupal.org
We have deprecated the Git remote format <username>@git.drupal.org/project/<yourproject>.git in favor of g...@git.drupal.org:project/<yourproject>.git in preparation for changes to our developer tooling stack. If you used the <username>@ format for your git remotes, you should change your remote to the git@ format. Please note: you cannot use password authentication with the new git@ format, you will need to upload SSH keys to your Drupal.org profile.
The version control tab at the top of any project will display the correct instructions that you can copy and use moving forward.

Change to Sandbox Git remote URLs
HTTP clones for sandbox projects have changed from: https://git.drupal.org/sandbox/<author-username>/<project-node-id>.git
to:
https://git.drupal.org/sandbox/<author-username>-<project-node-id>.git
Git urls for sandboxes have changed from the format:
<username>@git.drupal.org:sandbox/<author-username>/<project-node-id>.git
the format should be changed to: g...@git.drupal.org:sandbox/<author-username>-<project-node-id>.git
The version control tab at the top of any project will display the correct instructions that you can copy and use moving forward.
