Using Gerrit for libosmocore/lib../OpenBSC?

Hi, I like code-review around mailinglists (mostly everybody can read and learn from comments or code), it shows that people collaborate and that we move forward. What I don't like about the current workflow is that we need to manually close things in patchwork after applying/rejecting/ignoring a patch and that to see if it compiles and works are done after the review and by the person that applies the changes. In other projects I have used Gerrit and besides it being a Java monster found it quite okay to use. One strength is that one can directly push the changes for a branch for review, the other is that Jenkins and Gerrit can collaborate. This means that after a commit is pushed make, make check, make distcheck can be executed. Comments will always be attached to a line and not be lost due me quoting and removing parts of the mail. What I am not sure about: * How do the email notifications look like? E.g. do we just get a "Somebody has commented" mail or do we get diff + comment sent here? In OpenOCD I see there is an email with the diff[1] but no mail with the comments. * Shall we support direct pushes? I think specially in the beginning we should but the branch name for that would change. * A change that impacts libopenbsc+OpenBSC is difficult to represent. It would break "the" build but I don't see any other way. Is there enough consensus to give it a try? holger [1] http://sourceforge.net/p/openocd/mailman/message/34646766/
