But it gives the commit which is:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/firefox/c/fd700ad0ae450c4705017e05db7af709f7ea90f0?branch=stransky-firefox-57
itself part of the stransky-firefox-57 branch:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/firefox/commits/stransky-firefox-57

This behavior is nothing new and is the reason why releng does not allow to
delete branches in dist-git.
