Differential Migration

[edit]

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Release_Engineering_Team/Project/Differential_Migration

All tasks tagged for this quarter: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/board/9/query/dNy2.aRJEM82/
Initial documentation of example Differential workflows (with Gerrit equivalents) - task T117058
Phase 1 repository migration - task T130418
Migrate wikimedia-iegreview to Differential - task T132174
Migrate wikimedia-wikimania-scholarships to Differential - task T132173
Spec out needed glue for Differential to Gearman to Nodepool - task T130949
looks like this isn't needed, we can use the rest api.
Most/All of the jenkins jobs are unfortunately zuul-specific. I'm trying to fabricate the ZUUL_* parameters well enough to make them work.
Almost works: https://integration.wikimedia.org/ci/view/Default/job/tox-jessie/8466/
