== How could this affect me? == Potentially, you use an unpopular (in the sense of not used often) feature of Gitblit that is not supported in Diffusion. This should be unlikely.
Potentially, a link you follow that pointed to somewhere on git.wikimedia.org will not redirect correctly. This is also unlikely as we (mostly @Danny_B and @Paladox) took great care to update many mediawiki.org templates along with providing very robust redirect rules[2]. If you find one that isn't working, please let us know (along with the original url and, if possible, the desired target in Diffusion).
One known issue to call out: Diffusion does not list commits by person. However Differential (the code-review tool) does this (not just for new commits). There is no easy/maintainable way to redirect those, unfortunately.
Something else broken? Please file a task in Phabricator in the #Diffusion project[3].
I've filed https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T139027 in the https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/gitblit-deprecate/ project.
Is anyone going to review the server logs to add redirects for URLs that are now redirected to the diffusion front page instead of the requested resource ?
