The article totally missed the mark on Gerrit. I think the heavy user is now OpenStack and not Android... The article claims that Gerrit is just a small part, but if used fully it really isn't. It can be used to track the entire patch lifecycle. Which LKML doens't do via email.. because it isn't very good at it... it uses 'patchwork'. OpenStack uses Gerrit to manage 537 git repositories. In the last year, 86,027 changesets were merged in the last year out of 111,292 commits. [0] The real values are the smart searching capability (with email subscription to that search),integration with CI, inline code reviews.. simple rebasing, acls and easy digestion who reviewed. Once setup, the workflow is super simple: $ git commit $ git review $ # celebrate success Further, why all the hate on project managers?
