[docs][infra] Set up a pypa.io subdomain?

Description

$sbj. It's essentially the same as pypa/pipx#1058.
Any objections?

Build log

CI config

This would be nice. But, is there a way to make all the links to cibuildwheel.readthedocs.io redirect to the new domain? There are a lot of links to that domain. I'm not sure I'd like to make the change unless we can be confident that URLs will properly redirect. e.g. if a link sent a user to https://cibuildwheel.readthedocs.io/en/stable/options/#before-build, they end up at https://cibuildwheel.pypa.io/en/stable/options/#before-build

[webknjaz]

Yes, that's how it works out of the box, zero config needed.

@ewdurbin hey Ee, could you make another CNAME for this RTD project too, plz?

[henryiii]

You can see this working for build, which did this recently.

[joerick]

Nice, yeah I just tested it and the redirect was perfect, even including the URL fragment (i guess this is standard browser behaviour, TIL).

@ewdurbin hey Ee, could you make another CNAME for this RTD project too, plz?

Yes. Please add my user on readthedocs.org for the project first. (This is primarily so that DNS/cert/etc settings can be managed in the future by PSF infra).

[henryiii]

@joerick is the only one listed on rtd, so he’ll need to do it.

[henryiii]

Did we not do that with build?

[joerick]

Thanks @ewdurbin ! just sent you the invite to the RtD project.

edit: also invited @henryiii for bus-factor purposes

[ewdurbin]

CNAME and domain configuration added.

[webknjaz]

@henryiii @joerick RTD config update pending?

[joerick]

I totally forgot about this, thanks for the reminder! I'll take a look tomorrow. It will probably need some code/docs edits too so might require some planning to sync it up with a release.

[webknjaz]

It will probably need some code/docs edits

Not really. Those shouldn't be blockers since the redirects will work for the old links just fine.

[joerick]

Sure, not blockers but I don't see any reason to rush, I'd rather keep things neat and make the change all at once with a release.

[joerick]

It's done! Btw, thanks to whoever changed over the sidebar URL :)
