Comment:

 Alright I got some answers back. The location where we currently get the
 JSON file from is only updated for builds that actually ship. But we can
 do better here. There seems to be in-tree JSON files we can (and should)
 use instead, e.g. https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-esr60/raw-
 file/tip/browser/locales/l10n-changesets.json or
 https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-esr60/raw-file/tip/mobile/locales
 /l10n-changesets.json. Or, if we want to have a particular tag we could
 use something like https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-esr60/raw-
 file/FIREFOX_60_4_0esr_BUILD2/browser/locales/l10n-changesets.json
 instead.

 I think we don't use the specific tag but just what the branch we build
 from currently has.
