I don't know the details, but Guido has written Mondrian, a code review system for use at Google - https://www.niallkennedy.com/blog/2006/11/google-mondrian.html https://www.niallkennedy.com/blog/2006/11/google-mondrian.ht... - it was later replaced by something else, in a different language.
- malkia 5y agoSome history is captured here - https://www.gerritcodereview.com/about.html https://www.gerritcodereview.com/about.html (note, this is for the open source version of the tool, rietveld, from which gerrit roots are)
- malkia 5y agoSorry, for replying myself, but wanted to rely on outside sources - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerrit_(software)#History https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerrit_(software)#History So it got from Python -> Java
- zo1 5y agoWas it specifically replaced because of the GIL?
- malkia 5y agoI don't know, but from what I've heard Java just scales much better, and has better tooling/monitoring/etc. for running on cloud.
