Contributing to git-review

This tool is considered mostly feature-complete by its authors. It is meant to provide a simple, convenient tool for users of basic Gerrit change workflows. Contributions fixing bugs or regressions, maintaining support for newer Gerrit/Git releases and improving test coverage are welcome and encouraged. It is not, however, intended as an all-encompassing Gerrit client (there are plenty of other tools available supporting more advanced interactions), so proposed feature additions may make more sense implemented as complimentary git subcommands or similar related but separate projects.

To get the latest code, see: https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack-infra/git-review

Bugs are handled at: https://storyboard.openstack.org/#!/project/719

Code reviews, as you might expect, are handled by gerrit at: https://review.openstack.org Pull requests submitted through GitHub will be ignored.

Use git review to submit patches (after creating a gerrit account that links to your launchpad account). Example:

# Do your commits
git review
# Enter your username if prompted

The code review process is documented at https://docs.openstack.org/infra/manual/developers.html If that process is not enough to get reviewers' attention then try these (in that order):

  1. Use git log and git blame to find "who last touched the file" and add them. Make sure they're still active on https://review.openstack.org
  2. Ping the #openstack-infra IRC channel, see developers.html above.
  3. As a last resort, mailing-list at: http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-infra
