Hi Herbert,
Last week I did some work to clean up and document GHC's head.hackage infrastructure. At this point we have a full CI pipeline, including automatic deployment of a Hackage repository.
I asked on #ghc and there was quite some appetite to use gitlab.haskell.org:ghc/head.hackage as the head.hackage upstream repository to eliminate confusion and enjoy the benefits of having merge requests checked via CI. Moreover, this would significantly simplify the process of testing GHC against head.hackage as it would eliminate the need to pull from a separate upstream repository.
Would you be okay with moving head.hackage's upstream?
Just a gentle ping on this, Herbert. Cheers, - Ben
