 A few months ago we added the following redirects:

 1. https://www.torproject.org/dist/torbrowser/update_2/alpha/ -->
 https://aus1.torproject.org/torbrowser/update_2/alpha/
 2. https://www.torproject.org/dist/torbrowser/update_2/hardened/ -->
 https://aus1.torproject.org/torbrowser/update_2/hardened/
 3. https://dist.torproject.org/torbrowser/update_2/alpha/ --->
 https://aus1.torproject.org/torbrowser/update_2/alpha/
 4. https://dist.torproject.org/torbrowser/update_2/hardened/ --->
 https://aus1.torproject.org/torbrowser/update_2/hardened/

 Because there is no pinning on aus1.tpo yet, we want to move the `alpha`
 and `hardened` channels URLs back to dist.tpo (like the `release`
 channel). The redirects 1. and 2. should be modified to point to
 https://dist.torproject.org/torbrowser/update_2/alpha/ and
 https://dist.torproject.org/torbrowser/update_2/hardened/. The redirects
 3. and 4. should be removed.

 Currently the xml files are deployed in both locations, so that it
 continues to work after the redirects are updated:
 - /srv/dist-master.torproject.org/htdocs/torbrowser/update_2/alpha
 - /srv/aus1-master.torproject.org/htdocs/torbrowser/update_2/alpha
