I don't understand your point of view at all. Gerrit has such a good work flow and ui. It's probably in the top 5 best tools I have ever used. Github's pull request model is like a child's toy in comparison.
- xstartup 9y agoSerious question, what are other best ones?
- vlovich123 9y agoI really enjoyed ReviewBoard when I used it but we built up a lot of tooling around it to actually make it useful & integrate into git.
- ithkuil 9y agoI like https://reviewable.io https://reviewable.io, low friction github integration but gerrit-like multi-patchsets and generally a sane flow when you have multiple rounds of comments
- labster 9y agoGerrit has a good UI? Heh, that's a good one. Git's CLI is like 10x superior to Gerrit's interface, and that's even counting the fact that git checkout does like 2 or 3 different things. I've basically given up on fighting with the WMF's Gerrit install and outsource the work to other people. I push a commit up to a github repository, open a task, and ask another developer to grab my commit from a new git remote. I want to write code, not wrangle with whatever Gerrit wants me to do to submit code. And then look for tiny links on a cluttered page. No thanks.
- nbsd4lyfe 9y agoI'm assuming you're talking about the reviewer and long term contributor side of it. personally I found initial setup as a drive-by contributor to be very tedious. GitHub is the lowest friction because I already have an account with SSH key etc.
- u801e 9y agoWhat is your opinion on just using a pure mailing list workflow (like what's done for git itself)?
