My personal best tool for a Git branch's code review is `git lfo`, where the alias expands to: git log --pretty=full --reverse --show-notes=* -p --abbrev-commit origin/master.. Coupled with a "good diff highlighter", i.e. `diff-highlight | less --tabs=4 -RFX`… I'm set. I've yet to see a tool that allows me to review all commits as well as code, as easily. I don't only review a branch as a whole, i.e. `git diff master`, or "here's the diff" from a pull request… but I also review each commit individually (and rebase/amend them when required), as commits need to be in tip-top shape to end up going into master.

Looks interesting. Could you share what do use git notes for? Comments about the review? (seems like a lightweight alternative to git appraise [0]). [0]: https://github.com/google/git-appraise https://github.com/google/git-appraise

You should also take a look at https://diff2html.xyz/ https://diff2html.xyz/ and it's integration with https://diffy.org/ https://diffy.org/ to share diffs with co-workers, also both Open Source. (Disclaimer: I created diff2html)
